Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Muddle the Mint and Lime

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

  2. 2

    Add Simple Syrup

    Pour the simple syrup into the glass with the muddled mint and lime. Stir gently to combine.

  3. 3

    Add Rum

    Pour the white rum into the glass, mixing it with the mint-lime-syrup mixture.

  4. 4

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving a little space at the top for the club soda.

  5. 5

    Top with Club Soda

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

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of fresh mint. Serve immediately and enjoy!
