Mojito Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Muddle the Mint

   In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and lime juice. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.

2. 2

   Add Simple Syrup and Rum

   Pour in the simple syrup and white rum over the muddled mint and lime. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

3. 3

   Add Ice

   Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some space at the top for the soda.

4. 4

   Top with Club Soda

   Slowly pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to mix without losing too much carbonation.

5. 5

   Garnish and Serve

   Garnish your mojito with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw.
