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 down on the mint leaves and sugar to release the mint oils. Do this for about 30 seconds. Be careful not to tear the mint leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice into the glass over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. You can also drop one half of the lime into the glass for added flavor. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
3
Pour in the Rum
Add the white rum to the glass. Stir gently again to mix it thoroughly with the mint, sugar, and lime juice.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, packing them to the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to combine.
6
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.
