    Notes

    A few tips to make your Dead Man’s Mule truly shine:
    Chill your glass before using it. It keeps the drink cold longer.
    Experiment with different juices if you like. Maybe add some pomegranate?
    For more fizz, gently stir after pouring.
    Use fresh mint for the best aroma.
