1
Muddle Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves against the bottom of the glass to release the mint oils and flavor. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour in the lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine and dissolve the sugar.
3
Incorporate White Rum
Add the white rum to the mint, sugar, and lime mixture. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are mixed together.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top. This will help chill the drink and balance the flavors.
5
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour the club soda over the ice and mixture in the glass, allowing the bubbles to mix in gently. Adjust the amount of club soda to your taste preference.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the mojito with lime wedges and additional mint sprigs for an attractive presentation. Serve immediately with a straw.
