Moscow Mule🌿

-

A lot of ginger beers are too sweet. Fever Tree is a great less sweet option and Aldi's Summit Ginger Beer is an affordable option that's not too sweet and has a nice, botanical, spicy, herbal kick.

Servings: 1 (easily multiplied)

Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz vodka
  • 0.5 oz bottled lime juice
  • 3 oz Fever Tree ginger beer or Aldi's Summit ginger beer(or 1.5 oz of both)
  • Fresh mint sprig (optional garnish)

Equipment

Instructions

  1. Fill your copper mug or glass with crushed ice.
  2. Add the vodka, then the lime juice, and top with ginger beer.
  3. Stir gently to combine.
  4. Garnish with a fresh mint sprig. Enjoy!

Tips for the Best Moscow Mule

  • I love fresh juice when cooking but I honestly prefer bottled for this cocktail.
  • Crushed ice is key for that signature chill and dilution.
  • Ginger beer (not ginger ale) gives the proper spicy bite.
  • For extra aroma, slap the mint sprig between your hands before garnishing.
  • Make it a pitcher for parties by multiplying the ingredients and serving over ice.

    A lot of mules are a bit too much whether it is too sweet or too much alcohol. These were the most refreshing mules I have ever had. Highly recommend!

Blackened Shrimp Gochujang Noodles 🛒Check for Today's Price on Amazon Why I Bought It One of the biggest reasons I chose the Tramontina Signature Tri-Ply Stainless Steel Cookware Set is that it doesn't use a traditional nonstick coating. The cooking surface is simply stainless steel, so there's no coating to scratch, chip, or wear away over time. I wanted a quality stainless steel cookware set without paying All-Clad prices. Since I was starting a food blog and spending much more time in the kitchen, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to upgrade our cookware. Our previous "nonstick" cookware had reached the point where it wasn't nonstick at all. Scrambled eggs were especially frustrating, often sticking to the pan and making cleanup a chore.
