    Bourbon Moscow Mule

    by Jessica 2 Comments

    Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

    The Bourbon Moscow Mule is a bourbon lover's twist on the Classic Moscow Mule, and has also been referred to as a Kentucky Mule. It's the perfect mix of Kentucky bourbon, mint, lime and of course...ginger beer. It's sure to become one of your favorite drinks!

    Bourbon Moscow Mule or Kentucky Mule

    Moscow mules have been around since the early 1940s, but have made a major comeback over the past few years. They have become super popular, and are typically served in copper mugs. They can be made with so many different flavors like our Strawberry Basil Moscow Mule and so many more flavors. Even though they are typically made with vodka, they can also be made with bourbon. People here in KY call this version a Kentucky Mule since Kentucky is known as the bourbon state. Our version is made with one of our favorite bourbons, Buffalo Trace, but feel free to make them with the bourbon of your choice.

    What's in a Bourbon Moscow Mule?

    • 2 ounces of bourbon
    • ½ ounce of lime juice
    • 4-5 mint leaves
    • 4-5 ounces of ginger beer
    • ice
    • lime wheel and sprig of fresh mint for garnish (optional)

      Like several of the other recipes, information needed on preparation is lacking. On the Kentucky Mule you'll need to slap, or spank, the mint to release the oils and intensify the scent before the stirring begins.
      On the Old Fashion, squeeze the juice of a quartered orange into the blend of ONE sugar cube with a splash of water and bitters to taste. Don't muddle like so many, it will add orange oils and pulp clouding the drink. Stir with ice and strain into a glass with fresh ice. Garnish with an Orange peel, perhaps a Luxardo cherry (Never red maraschino) and serve.
