Notes
- If possible, I would recommend using copper mugs. They really keep a drink cold for a longer time. A nice cocktail glass will also work nicely if you don't have the copper ones.
- You can add more ginger beer and less alcohol for a lighter and refreshing drink.
- Muddle the mint for extra flavor.
