Ingredients

  • 2 oz White Rum Havana Rum 3 years
  • 1 oz Lime juice
  • 2 tbsp Cane sugar
  • 10-15 Mojito mint leaves plus additional for garnish
  • 2-4 oz Chilled club soda
  • 1 Sprig Mojito Mint for garnish

Instructions

  • Add Mojito mint, lime juice, and cane sugar into a cocktail shaker. Gently muddle the ingredients to release the flavor of the mint. Be careful not to blend the mint leaves into tiny pieces. They should more or less stay intact.
    1 oz Lime juice, 10-15 Mojito mint leaves, 2 tbsp Cane sugar
  • Make sure the sugar almost completely dissolves before you add the Rum and plenty of ice. Shake the cocktail for 10-15 seconds.
    2 oz White Rum
  • Fill a Highball glass with ice cubes or crushed ice. Also, add additional mint leaves and make sure you "slapped" them before. That will release their beautiful aroma.
  • Strain your cocktail into the glasses and fill it up with chilled club soda.
    2-4 oz Chilled club soda
  • Slap the mint sprig and use it to decorate the Mojito.
