To elevate the presentation, you’ll start by rimming your glasses with sugar. Pour a little sugar onto a shallow plate. Take a lime wedge and rub it along the rims of your cocktail glasses. Now, gently press the rims into the sugar to coat them. Set the glasses aside for later.

Take a sturdy glass pitcher and squeeze the juice from all your lime quarters into it. Drop the used lime wedges into the pitcher as well. Add in the mint leaves, quartered strawberries, and 1 cup of sugar. Now, use a muddler (or the back of a wooden spoon) to crush the mixture. This step releases the vibrant juice from the strawberries and the aromatic oils from the mint while blending everything with the lime.

Once your base mix is beautifully muddled and fragrant, pour in the club soda and white rum. Stir everything together until the sugar completely dissolves. You’ll notice the mixture taking on a gorgeous pink hue as the strawberries infuse their color and flavor.

Fill your prepared glasses with ice cubes, leaving some room at the top for the mojito mixture. Carefully pour your strawberry mojito into each glass, making sure each serving gets a nice mix of mint, strawberry pieces, and lime. Optionally, garnish with an additional strawberry or a sprig of mint for an extra burst of color.

This drink is best served fresh and ice-cold. Hand these out to your guests and watch their faces light up as they take their first sip!
