These Mojitos have a sweet, citrus flavor that comes from using fresh lime juice and sugar. Mixed with fresh mint leaves and white rum. The perfect refreshing cocktail recipe.

Ingredients
Simple Syrup
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar
Mojito
- 8-10 mint leaves
- juice 1/2 a lime approximately 1 tablespoon
- 4 tbsp simple syrup
- 2 ounces rum
- 4 ounces club soda
Instructions
Simple Syrup
- Pour water into a small saucepan, bring to a boil. Remove from heat.
- Stir in sugar until it completely dissolves and liquid is clear. Let sit and cool to room temperature.
Mojito
- Add the 8-10 mint leaves to your cocktail shaker.
- Squeeze in the juice from half a lime. Muddle these together. You only want to muddle the mint leaves enough to bruise the leaves, you don't want to break them up into small pieces.
- Add some ice to the shaker.
- Pour in the simple syrup and rum. Give it a shake.
- Pour the drink over some ice in a highball glass and top with club soda.
- Garnish with additional mint leaves and lime wedges.

Notes
- Simple Syrup Substitutes:
- Sugar: add about 2 tablespoons sugar with the mint leaves and lime juice, muddle it all together. Then add the ice and rum to the shaker.
- Agave Syrup: this doesn't have much flavor to it like honey would, which makes it a better option for adding to drinks as a sweetener.
