Peach Hibiscus Mule Cocktail Recipe
This refreshing drink combines sweet peach, tart hibiscus, and spicy ginger beer. It's a fun twist on the classic Moscow Mule that's perfect for summer sipping.
Equipment
- Copper mug or highball glass
- Cocktail shaker
- Jigger or measuring cup
- Muddler
- Ice
Ingredients
- 2 oz vodka
- 1 oz peach nectar
- 1/2 oz hibiscus syrup
- 1/2 fresh peach sliced
- 4 oz ginger beer
- Fresh mint and peach slice for garnish
Use a good quality vodka as the base. Peach nectar adds fruity sweetness.
Instructions
- Add peach slices to the shaker and muddle gently.
- Pour in vodka, peach nectar, and hibiscus syrup.
- Fill shaker with ice and shake for 10-15 seconds.
- Strain into a copper mug filled with ice.
- Top with ginger beer and stir gently.
- Garnish with a mint sprig and peach slice.
Muddling the peach releases its juices and oils. Shaking with ice chills and dilutes the drink slightly.
Notes
This recipe serves one. It's easy to scale up for a crowd. Just multiply the ingredients by the number of servings needed.
For a mocktail version, skip the vodka and use extra peach nectar and ginger beer.
Try different fruit syrups in place of hibiscus for variety. Blackberry or raspberry work well.
Make sure all ingredients are well chilled before mixing. This helps keep the drink cold without too much ice dilution.
