Equipment

Bartender kit optional

Ingredients

6 mint leaves plus extra for garnish
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 ounce lime juice
1 ounce white rum we used Bacardi
1 ounce coconut rum we used Malibu
1 ounce cream of coconut we used Coco Real
2-4 ounces club soda

Instructions

Add mint leaves, lime juice, and brown sugar to a cocktail shaker. Muddle the mixture to release the oils from the mint leaves.
Add a handful of ice cubes to the shaker and then add white rum.
Add the coconut rum and cream of coconut.
Shake the mixture until it’s chilled and thoroughly mixed.
Strain your drink into a tall glass, then top with a splash of club soda or seltzer water and stir. Garnish with mint leaves and lime wheels or wedges and enjoy!

Notes

If you don’t have a cocktail muddler, you can use the back of a large spoon to muddle the mint, lime juice, and brown sugar.
Mojitos taste extra refreshing when perfectly chilled. Try putting your glasses in the freezer for 15-20 minutes before serving.
