Cuban Mojito

Made with rum, lime juice, simple syrup, and fresh mint, this refreshing cuban cocktail is perfect for summer.

Recipe Summary Cuban Mojito

This is a traditional mojito recipe, very similar to the drinks I enjoyed in Varadero, Cuba. The muddling and the order of the ingredients helps ensure that all the flavors are well blended. Serve with a straw and a decorative stir stick to keep the different flavors well mixed together. Mint sprigs may be used for a garnish instead of lime wedges. Enjoy!

2 teaspoons white sugar

1 lime, cut into 4 wedges

4 sprigs fresh mint

½ cup white rum

2 cups club soda

2 cups crushed ice

2 wedges lime, as garnish

Directions

Place 1 teaspoon of sugar into each of two 12 ounce glasses. Squeeze the juice from a lime wedge into each glass, drop in the wedge, and add 2 sprigs of mint. Use a spoon or muddler to mash the sugar, lime juice, and mint together in the bottom of the glasses. Fill each glass about half full with crushed ice. Pour 1/4 cup rum into each glass. Fill the glasses with club soda, stir, and garnish with additional lime wedges.
