Preparation Steps

1

Muddle 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 and sugar together to release the mint oils, being careful not to tear the leaves too much.

2

Add Lime Juice

Pour in the fresh lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine.

3

Add Rum

Pour the white rum into the glass and stir again to mix all the ingredients together.

4

Add Ice

Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.

5

Top with Club Soda

Pour club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to combine all ingredients.

6

Garnish

Garnish your mojito with lime wedges and a sprig of mint for an extra touch of freshness.

7

Serve

Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your refreshing mojito!
