Mojito Recipe

Muddle the Mint

In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press and twist the mint leaves to release their essential oils. Be careful not to shred the leaves too much.

Squeeze the Lime

Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice into the glass, removing any seeds that may fall in. You can also add the lime halves to the glass for extra flavor.

Add the Rum

Pour the white rum into the glass with the muddled mint, sugar, and lime juice.

Mix the Ingredients

Use a spoon to stir the mixture gently to dissolve the sugar and combine all the flavors.

Add Ice

Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.

Top with Club Soda

Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is filled. Stir gently to combine.

Garnish and Serve

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