1
Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to shred the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice and Simple Syrup
Pour the fresh lime juice and simple syrup over the muddled mint in the glass. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.
3
Add Rum
Pour in the white rum and stir gently again to combine all the ingredients.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to chill the cocktail.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is filled. This will add a refreshing fizz to your mojito.
6
Garnish
Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint for a fresh look and added aroma.
7
Serve
Serve immediately with a straw for sipping and enjoy your refreshing mojito!
