Ingredients
- 12 mint leaves
- 3 tsp sugar
- 2 limes
- 4 tbsp rum
- 50-75ml soda water
- a sprig of mint leaves
Step by step
- Put the mint leaves and sugar into a jam jar. Cut one lime into four wedges, and juice the second lime. Add two of the lime wedges and squash them, in the jar, with the end of a spoon for a good minute or so to muddle the ingredients together and release the flavours. Pour in the lime juice and rum. Put the lid on and give it a good shake. Pour over ice into a glass and top up with soda water. Repeat as necessary and garnish each mojito with a couple of lime wedges and a mint sprig.
