How to Make Tequila Mojitos

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup water.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Remove from heat and add 1 cup of fresh mint leaves.
  4. Let the mixture steep for at least 2 hours, or until completely cool. The longer it steeps, the more intense the mint flavor will be!
  5. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a pitcher, discarding the mint leaves.
  6. Stir in 1 cup of club soda, 1/2 cup fresh lime juice, and 1 cup of tequila.
  7. Fill glasses with ice and pour the Tequila Mojito mixture over the ice.
  8. Garnish with fresh mint sprigs and lime wedges, if desired.
