1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently muddle the mint leaves with the sugar to release the essential oils of the mint. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour the freshly squeezed lime juice into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.
3
Add White Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass and stir again to mix it thoroughly with the mint, sugar, and lime juice.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, pressing them down gently to ensure they are well-packed.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is filled, creating a fizzy effect. Stir gently to combine.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw, if desired.
