Step-by-Step Instructions for Festive White Christmas Mojitos
  1. In a large pitcher, combine the fresh mint leaves, sugar, and lime juice. Muddle gently for about 30 seconds to release aromatic oils.
  2. If desired, strain the muddled mixture through a fine mesh sieve into another container, discarding the mint leaves.
  3. Pour in the white rum and coconut rum, followed by the canned coconut milk. Stir gently for about 15 seconds until well combined.
  4. Fill glasses halfway with ice cubes, which should take about a minute or two.
  5. Pour the coconut rum mixture over the ice-filled glasses until they are three-quarters full.
  6. Top each glass with sparkling water, filling to the rim to enhance the fizzy quality.
  7. Garnish with sprigs of fresh mint and a sprinkle of pomegranate arils for visual appeal.
