Peach Kentucky Mule
This simple summer recipe combines two of my favorite things - peaches and bourbon - in one spicy sweet cocktail. Swapping brown liquor for vodka gives this cocktail a delightful depth of flavor, and the addition of peach to the lime and ginger base makes me feel like I’m sitting on a porch swing in the South.

Notes
- Can I swap ginger beer for ginger ale?
- While you certainly can trade ginger ale for ginger beer, I don’t recommend that you do. Most of the commercially available ginger ales (*cough*Canada Dry*cough*) don’t actually contain ANY real ginger. For the best - and spiciest - ginger flavor, I suggest using a real ginger beer.
- Most well stocked grocers now carry at least one brand of ginger beer - try looking for Cock ‘n Bull or Reed’s. If your store doesn’t carry any of the good stuff, you can try your hand at making your own ginger syrup and mixing it with club soda.
