Irish Cranberry Mule
Alcoholic Cocktail Any Glass 6 ingredients

Recipe

  • 2 oz Irish Whiskey
  • 2-3 oz Cranberry Juice
  • 5-6 oz Ginger Beer
  • 1-2 oz. Lime Juice
  • Ice
  • Garnish with a lime wedge & mint sprigs (optional)

Instructions

We recommend a proper copper Mule glass for this drink, but any larger glass will do. Combine Irish Whiskey, Cranberry Juice and Lime Juice in any glass, over ice. The larger the better due to ice contents. Next pour in the desirable amount of Ginger Beer. We recommend at least 5 ounces. Mix all ingredients. Garnish with a lime wedge or mint sprigs, if you have. We also highly recommend muddling the mint sprigs in the bottom of the glass prior to building the cocktail, but that's entirely up to the maker!

About Irish Cranberry Mule

An Irish Cranberry Mule is a festive and tangy cocktail that blends the warmth of Irish whiskey with the tartness of cranberry juice, creating a perfect drink for any occasion. Typically served over ice in a copper mug, which keeps the drink chilled, it's sometimes garnished with a slice of lime and a few cranberries for a pop of color and an extra burst of tangy flavor. This drink is a delightful twist on the classic Moscow Mule, offering a unique blend of flavors that's both invigorating and comforting.

This cocktail is alcoholic, so drink responsibly! Best served in a Any Glass, though any glass works!

Feel free to get creative with substitutions — try different fruit types, sugar substitutes, or liquor brands. Crafting cocktails should be fun!
