Cranberry Moscow mule recipe made with zesty orange, zippy ginger beer, vodka, lime, and cranberry just might be the most refreshing drink on the planet. Try one today!
As far as holiday cocktails go, this is an easy drink to make too. So easy that a recipe is barely even needed. Think of it more as an inspiration than a recipe. Quickly glance at the ratios and then use that as a guide to create your own tasty concoction. Kind of like those holiday mimosas I taught you to make last year.
To make the recipe even easier for a group setting, you can pre-mix the juices together so that all you need to do is add a splash of vodka and ginger beer to serve. Heck, you can even mix it all and just pour over ice when serving each glass if you think it’ll get drank quickly before the fizz of the ginger beer goes away.
I’ve been dying to share a drink recipe with you since getting these fancy mule mugs. Even spilling a cranberry Moscow mule all over myself on Thanksgiving, didn’t deter me from the mugs or the tasty beverage inside.
Although, I like the classic recipe mule as is, this combo is extraordinarily delightful for a two reasons. The cranberry and the OJ lightens up the zest of the lime in the best way possible. Also, the cranberry makes for a fun, festive color.
Yes, drink color is a legitimate benefit. Don’t question me on this…
