The Mojito is a further variation of the trendy Caipirinha cocktail. Fresh mint leaves impart a special note to this tart cocktail.

Several leaves of fresh mint
1 – 2 Tbsp. cane sugar
1 Lime
Club soda
6 cl White rum
Crushed ice

Preparation:
Place sugar and several mint leaves in a glass and crush with a pestle. Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice of one half into the glass. Cut the other half into quarters, place in the glass and also crush with the pestle. Add rum and crushed ice and fill to taste with club soda. Stir until the glass fogs up and garnish with a mint branch. Serve with a straw.
