    Mold in bathroom sink caulking

    What would be the best way to get rid of the mold that's circled in red in the picture below? It's basically developing in the caulking where the sink meets the counter. We have noticed this for about a year. Will this be hard to remove? There must be a lot of mold inside the caulking?
