- 2 teaspoons Granulated sugar
- 2 ounces White rum
- 4 ounces Club soda
- 1 cup Crushed ice
- 1 piece Lime wedge
- 1 piece Mint sprig (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a sturdy glass (or cocktail shaker), add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar.
Step 2
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass. Drop the spent lime halves into the glass as well.
Step 3
Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently mash the mint, sugar, and lime together to release the mint's oils and the lime's juice without tearing the mint leaves too much.
Step 4
Fill the glass halfway with crushed ice.
Step 5
Pour in the white rum and stir gently to combine.
Step 6
Top off the glass with club soda, stirring again to integrate all the flavors.
Step 7
Fill the rest of the glass with more crushed ice, ensuring it’s packed snugly.
Step 8
Garnish with a lime wedge and a sprig of fresh mint.
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy Markee's Mojito while it's icy and refreshing!
