How to make it

  • In a bowl using the back of a wooden spoon crush together the mint sprigs, sugar and lime juice.
  • Pour in the rum then cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
  • Select 4 tall slender glasses.
  • Spread a layer of sugar on a small flat plate.
  • Working with 1 glass at a time run a lime wedge around the edge of the glass to moisten then dip rim into the sugar to coat it evenly.
  • Put the glasses in the freezer to chill for at least 15 minutes.
  • When ready to make the mojitos fill a blender halfway with ice cubes.
  • Pour the rum mixture through a fine mesh sieve into the blender.
  • Add club soda and the 1/2 cup mint leaves and puree until well blended.
  • Divide mixture evenly among the chilled glasses.
  • Garnish each glass with a lime wedge and a mint sprig.
