A mojito is a long, ice-cold cocktail built on the combination of white rum, fresh lime juice, and muddled mint, sweetened with sugar syrup and lengthened with soda water. Bright, sharp, and deeply refreshing, it sits in a highball glass with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint, and suits a wide range of occasions and tables.
