Ingredients

For one cocktail:

Use good quality vodka for the best taste. Fresh lime juice is better than bottled. Pick a spicy ginger beer for more kick. Large marshmallows work best for muddling.

Instructions

  • Put marshmallows in the shaker and muddle until broken up.
  • Add vodka, lime juice, and ice to the shaker. Shake hard for 10-15 seconds.
  • Strain into an ice-filled glass or mug.
  • Top with ginger beer and stir gently.
  • Garnish with a lime wheel and toasted marshmallow on a skewer.

To toast the marshmallow, use a kitchen torch or hold it over a flame until golden brown. Be careful not to burn it.

    Notes

    This drink is sweet from the marshmallows. For less sweetness, use fewer marshmallows or add more lime juice.
    The recipe can be doubled or tripled to make a pitcher for parties. Mix the vodka, lime, and muddled marshmallows ahead of time. Add ginger beer just before serving.
    Try different flavored marshmallows like vanilla or strawberry for new taste combos. You can also swap the vodka for rum or tequila.

    Tasting Notes

    The Marshmallow Ginger Mule Cocktail offers a unique blend of flavors. The sweetness of marshmallows mixes with the spicy kick of ginger beer. This creates a taste that is both familiar and surprising.

    The drink has a creamy texture from the marshmallow vodka. It feels smooth on the tongue. The ginger beer adds a fizzy element that tingles in the mouth.

    There’s a hint of lime that brings a fresh, citrusy note. This balances out the sweetness and spice. The overall taste is not too sweet, thanks to the ginger’s heat.

    The aroma is a mix of sweet marshmallow and spicy ginger. It’s inviting and makes you want to take a sip. As you drink, the flavors unfold in layers.

    The aftertaste is warm and slightly spicy. It leaves you wanting another sip. This cocktail is best enjoyed slowly to appreciate all its flavors.

    Must Have Ingredients

    Substitute

    Can’t find ginger beer for your Marshmallow Ginger Mule? No worries! There are a few tasty options to try instead.

    Ginger ale makes a good swap. It’s sweeter and less spicy than ginger beer, but still gives that ginger flavor.

    Mix it with a dash of lime juice to balance the sweetness.

    Another choice is homemade ginger syrup. Simmer fresh ginger, sugar, and water until thick. Then, add this to club soda for a DIY ginger beer substitute.

    For a non-alcoholic version, use ginger tea. Brew strong ginger tea and chill it. Then, mix it with club soda and a squeeze of lime for a refreshing mock mule.

    Here’s a quick list of substitutes:

    Remember, these swaps may change the drink’s taste slightly. Feel free to adjust other ingredients to find your perfect balance.
