Ingredients

  • 4-5 fresh mint leaves (plus a good looking sprig for garnish)
  • 2 strawberries quartered
  • 2 oz of white rum
  • ¾ oz of simple syrup
  • 1 oz of lime juice cut a lime wedge for garnish
  • About 2 big handfuls of crushed ice
  • Soda water to top up

Instructions

  1. Rub your mint leaves around the rim of your glass, then rip them up and place them inside the glass.

  2. Add your strawberries, then use a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon (or something of that nature) to squash the strawberries and to muddle the mint.

  3. Put your rum, sugar syrup and lime juice in your glass, fill the glass 3 quarters of the way with your crushed ice then give the mixture a quick stir.

  4. Top the glass up with your soda water, add a little more crushed ice and then finish with a final sprig of mint. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

  • Don't just add the mint. Rip it and muddle it to extract the oils. 
  • To crush your own ice, wrap your ice cubes up in a tea towel, then use something solid to bash them. 
  • To make your own sugar syrup, add half water and half sugar to a pot or pan, then boil until the sugar is dissolved. To infuse the syrup, add a herb or a fruit while the syrup is still hot. 
  • I like to have a spoon to stir the mojito every minute because the syrup tends to sink to the bottom.
