Place the mint leaves and sugar in a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker.
Muddle the mint and sugar together gently with a muddler or the back of a spoon to release the mint's oils while dissolving the sugar. Be careful not to tear the mint leaves into tiny pieces.
Add the fresh lime juice to the muddled mixture and mix lightly.
Fill a tall glass with ice cubes, ensuring the glass is about 3/4 full.
Pour the muddled mint, sugar, and lime juice mixture over the ice, straining if desired.
Add the white rum to the glass and gently stir to combine the ingredients.
Top off the drink with club soda, about 2-3 ounces depending on your preference.
Garnish the drink with lime slices and a sprig of mint for a classic mojito look.
Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your Sloppy Joe's Mojito!
