Champagne Mule Cocktail Recipe
I'm sharing one of my favorite cocktail recipes, the Champagne Mule, which brings together the refreshing flavors of ginger beer, lime, and bubbly champagne. It's the perfect drink for any celebration or casual get-together! š„
Equipment
- Copper mug or glass: I love using a copper mug for that classic mule experience, but a glass works just fine.
- Jigger: This helps me measure out each ingredient perfectly.
- Mixing spoon: I use this to gently stir the drink.
- Juicer: A hand juicer makes squeezing fresh lime juice a breeze.
- Ice: Crushed or cubed ice to keep things chill.
Ingredients
Here's what you'll need to create this delightful drink:
- 4 oz ginger beer
- 1 oz vodka
- 1/2 oz fresh lime juice
- 1/2 oz simple syrup optional, for a sweeter taste
- Champagne to top about 2 oz
- Lime wheel or mint sprig for garnish
Feel free to adjust the amounts to suit your taste. The simple syrup is optional, especially if you like it less sweet. š
Instructions
Let's get mixing! Here's how I put together my Champagne Mule:
- Fill your mug or glass with ice.
- Pour in the vodka and lime juice.
- Top with ginger beer and gently stir.
- Add a splash of champagne (or more if you're feeling bubbly).
- Garnish with a lime wheel or mint sprig.
Sip, relax, and enjoy your creation. Cheers! āØ
Notes
A few tips to make your cocktail shine:
Experiment with different types of sparkling wine if champagne is too pricey.
For an extra zing, grate some fresh ginger over the top.
If you prefer a stronger lime flavor, add an extra splash of lime juice.
Don't have simple syrup? Substitute with a teaspoon of sugar.
