Strawberry Moscow Mule
Description
This cocktail blends fresh muddled strawberries with the classic Moscow Mule ingredients to create a vibrant, fruit-forward variant. The muddling process breaks down the strawberries to release natural sweetness and juice, which harmonizes with the spicy ginger beer and tangy lime juice. Vodka adds a neutral alcoholic base while simple syrup adjusts the sweetness for balance. The drink is served cold over ice to maintain refreshing qualities, with mint garnish to add a fresh herbal aroma.
The preparation is straightforward, combining muddled fruit with measured liquids stirred well to integrate flavors evenly. It suits consumption soon after making to preserve the bright strawberry notes and ginger fizz. For a non-alcoholic version, vodka can be omitted without sacrificing the drink's character.
Ingredients
- 5 strawberries muddled
- 3 oz. ginger beer

Instructions

- Place the strawberries in a glass (a copper mug or your glassware of choice—we aren’t picky here!), and muddle with a muddler.
