Sometimes you just need to switch things up. Sometimes you need to be able to turn up with shots and shooters. Sometimes you need a little fruity refreshment added to an already refreshing drink for those extra hot days by the pool.
Although the traditional Moscow Mule recipe is delicious, sometimes even that needs to be switched up a bit.
Keep things exciting with these five creative alternatives to the traditional Moscow Mule–
Apple Cider Moscow Mule
The team over at the Glitter Guide absolutely crushed it with this recipe for an Apple Cider Moscow Mule— especially perfect for a chilly Fall or Winter day, but obviously perfect anytime you just need that warm fuzzy feeling from your favorite cocktail. Apple slices instead of lime is genius if you ask us. We might try to one-up this and add some fresh cinnamon sticks as well.
Strawberry Moscow Mule
Imagine you’re sitting by the pool on a hot summer day. Stylish shades on, taking in the rays. Life is good. And you want a fresh Moscow Mule to enjoy. But it’s vacation after all, so you want something a little sweeter and a little more refreshing. Check out this exclusive Strawberry Moscow Mule Recipe from Natalie over at Beautiful Booze!
Moscow Mule Jello Shots
Friday night, end of a rough week, and a couple friends are coming over in a few hours. You can already tell that you all will be turning up pretty aggressively, and you want to have some shots ready. But that inner drink connoisseur in you wants to have fun as well. Why not turn a Moscow Mule into a shot? Is that even possible? Yup, all we all need to be thanking Serena over at Domesticate Me!
Mint Moscow Mule
Mint automatically makes everything a little more refreshing without compromising the true taste of whatever it’s garnishing. That definitely applies for adding mint to a Moscow Mule. Don’t want to change the tradition moscow mule too much by going with a Strawberry Moscow Mule, but still want to add a little extra kick of refreshment? Try this Mint Moscow Mule Recipe from Mandy over at Waiting on Martha.
Pomegranate Moscow Mule
Last, but certainly not least, we explore this Pomegranate Moscow Mule Recipe from Becky at The Cookie Rookie. Who says you can’t get the health benefits from pomegranates while at the same time experimenting with a new alternative spin on the traditional Moscow Mule?
Public service announcement– just because we’re having a little fun with the traditional Moscow Mule doesn’t mean you can skimp on the classic copper mug! These are the copper mugs we’d recommend for all of your Moscow Mules. Cheers!
