An easy mojito recipe to enjoy at home. It's hard to find mojitos at any of the restaurants in the small town I'm in, and when I tried to make my own using club soda, they never seemed to turn out right. Using lemon-lime soda instead also cuts down on the amount of sugar usually used.

- 12 leaves mint
- 2 limes slices
- 1 teaspoon white sugar , or more to taste
- 0.25 cups ice cubes , or as needed
- 1 jigger rum , 1.5 fluid ounce
