- 4 oz. ginger beer
- 4 oz. cranberry juice
- 2 oz. vodka
- Juice of 1 lime wedge
- Ice
- Fresh cranberries
- Fresh lime wedges or slices for garnish
To your mule mug, add ice, ginger beer, cranberry juice, and vodka.
Stir to combine and chill.
Spritz with the juice of 1 lime wedge.
Garnish with fresh cranberries and fresh lime wedges or slices.
- Use crushed ice if you can. It keeps the drink colder and looks real pretty in that copper mug.
- Chill your ginger beer and cranberry juice ahead of time. Nobody likes a lukewarm mule!
- Fresh lime juice is a must. Skip the bottled stuff, it just ain’t the same.
- Want to make it extra festive? Toss in a sprig of rosemary with those cranberries for a holiday vibe.
