📝 Instructions

8 steps

1. In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves, granulated sugar, and the juice of half a lime. Cut the remaining half into wedges.

2. Muddle the mixture gently with a muddler or the back of a spoon to release the mint's oils and combine it with the sugar and lime juice. Be careful not to over-muddle to avoid bitterness.

3. Add the lime wedges to the glass and muddle them lightly to extract their juice.

4. Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some space at the top for liquids.

5. Pour in the white rum, cranberry juice, and club soda over the ice. Stir gently to combine.

6. Taste and adjust any ingredient (e.g., sugar or lime) if desired. Add more ice if needed to top off the glass.

7. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint, a lime slice, and a few fresh cranberries for a vibrant presentation.

8. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your Pink Mojito!
