Use the freshest mint you can find for the best flavor. Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. Some like it sweeter, some less so. For a non-alcoholic version, omit the rum and use extra club soda or sparkling water. Chilling the glasses beforehand will help keep your mojito colder for longer.
