Notes

For a healthier twist, swap white sugar for honey or agave syrup. If you prefer less fizz, you can use sparkling water instead of club soda. To make it alcohol-free, simply replace the rum with coconut water. Always use fresh mint and limes for the best flavor; avoid bottled lime juice. For a fun party idea, set up a DIY mojito station where guests can mix their own drinks!
