Instructions

Muddle Mint, Sugar, and Lime: In a sturdy glass, gently muddle the fresh mint leaves, granulated sugar, and lime wedges together to release their juices and essential oils, creating a flavorful base for your mojito.
Add Passion Fruit: Stir in the passion fruit pulp or juice thoroughly to incorporate the tropical flavor evenly throughout the mixture.
Fill with Ice and Add Rum: Fill the glass with ice cubes to chill the drink, then pour in the white rum over the ice, blending the ingredients and cooling the cocktail.
Top with Club Soda: Pour club soda or sparkling water to top off the glass, adding a refreshing fizz. Give the mixture a gentle stir to combine all elements without losing carbonation.
Garnish and Serve: Decorate with additional fresh mint leaves and a slice of lime for an appealing presentation. Serve immediately to enjoy the crisp and invigorating flavors at their best.

Notes

If using fresh passion fruit pulp, strain out some of the seeds for a smoother texture if preferred.
For a non-alcoholic version, omit the rum and replace it with extra sparkling water or a splash of orange juice.
