Jalapeño Moscow Mule
A spicy twist on the traditional Moscow mule recipe, this version is made with gin, jalapeños and ginger beer. The perfect drink that’s zesty, spicy and not too sweet.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup mint fresh, sprigs
- 1 jalapeño divided, thinly sliced
- ¼ cup lime juice
- 6 ounces gin (or vodka)
- 12 ounces ginger beer
- simple syrup optional, to sweet
Instructions
- In a pitcher, use the back of a wooden spoon to muddle together the mint, half of the jalapeño slices and lime juice.
- Pour in gin then stir well.
- Fill four copper mugs with ice and add in equal parts of the gin mixture leaving filling the mugs 3/4 of the way full.
- Top off each glass with equal parts ginger beer and serve with additional jalapeño slices or lime wedges for garnish.
Notes
- If you prefer a sweeter cocktail, sweeten to taste with simple syrup which is equal parts sugar and water heated in the microwave for 45 seconds until sugar dissolves.
