Muddle the lime juice, sugar, and mint leaves together in the bottom of a cocktail glass until the mint has broken down a bit, about 1 minute. Fill the glass with ice cubes.

A good Mojito starts with high-quality ingredients, such as freshly squeezed lime juice, fragrant mint leaves, and a smooth and flavorful rum. The proportions of these ingredients are also crucial – too much sugar can overpower the drink, while too little mint can leave it lacking in freshness. Additionally, the technique used to muddle the mint and mix the cocktail can make a significant difference in its overall flavor and presentation. Whether you're sipping on a Mojito at a trendy rooftop bar or making one at home, we're here to guide you in finding and creating the perfect, good Mojito.
