Cider Moscow Mule, Apple Style

Worth keeping a good Moscow Mule in a chilled, frosty copper mug.

Simply me? A few years ago I shared my first mule. It was a late fall/early winter cranberry version, but this year I was playing around with the idea of an apple cider version and well, this now makes 3 Moscow mule recipes on.

Apple cider + apple vodka + ginger beer. Need I say more?

To Make An Apple Cider Moscow Mule Gather:

  • ice
  • apple vodka – In this cocktail, I like to use absolut juice.
  • apple cider – If you’re lucky to live near a cider mill, I highly recommend buying it from there.
  • ginger beer – Bundaberg brand is great for this cocktail.
  • limes – Needed or squeezing into the drink and as garnish.
  • cinnamon sticks – Used as garnish.
  • apples slices – Used for garnish

Start by filling your cups to the top with ice.

Pour 2 ounces apple vodka – more or less to taste.

Then pour in 4 ounces apple cider.

Fill the mugs the rest of the way with the ginger beer. Lastly, squeeze in a wedge of lime.

Fall in Moscow mule form.

Enjoy! And if you give this dish a try, let me know! Snap a photo and tag me on twitter or instagram!
