Start by preparing your serving glass (a highball or tall glass works best).
Add 8-10 fresh mint leaves to the bottom of the glass.
Cut the lime into 4 wedges and squeeze the juice of 2 wedges over the mint leaves. Drop the squeezed wedges into the glass.
Add the granulated sugar to the glass.
Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently muddle the mint, lime wedges, and sugar together to release the flavors. Be careful not to shred the mint leaves too much.
Add a generous cup of ice cubes to the glass, filling it nearly to the top.
Pour in 2 ounces of coconut rum over the ice.
Top off the drink with 4 ounces of club soda, stirring gently to combine the ingredients.
Garnish with a fresh mint sprig and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
Serve immediately and enjoy your tropical Cojito Mojito!
