Directions

1 In 1-quart saucepan, mix mint syrup ingredients. Heat to boiling over high heat, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low; simmer 5 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat; let stand at room temperature about 20 minutes.
2 Strain mint leaves mixture into pitcher; do not push on leaves or syrup will turn a dark green color. Add rum, lime juice and club soda to pitcher.
3 Fill 4 low-ball glasses with ice cubes. Place halved lime slices in glasses, pushing down along side of glass, allowing ice cubes to hold them in place.
4 Pour mint mixture into glasses over ice. Garnish each with mint sprig.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Make a big batch of the mint syrup and store it in your refrigerator for up to 1 week. If you make it beforehand, the mojitos will take only a few minutes to make.

For more mint flavor, place 1 tablespoonful chopped mint leaves in glasses before adding the ice.

Crushed ice can be substituted for the ice cubes.
