This Kentucky Mule is the best bourbon whiskey version of the classic Moscow Mule cocktail. With lime, ginger & bourbon it's a quick & easy cocktail that's perfect to make for a crowd. What makes this version special then? An extra dash of ginger, for that extra kick.
Pour bourbon, ginger shot and lime juice into a glass and mix. Add in a few ice cubes if desired and top with ginger beer. Decorate with a lime wedge and serve immediately!
Bourbon can be swapped for another type of whiskey
Lime juice should really be fresh for the best results - no bottle here
Ginger shot can be skipped
Tips & tricks
Make it for a crowd - mix bourbon, lime juice and ginger shot in a pitcher or punch bowl. Then, just before serving, pour in glasses, add ice cubes, and top with ginger beer.
For an extra kick - rub the rim with a slice of ginger
Make it non-alcoholic by just skipping the bourbon - the ginger still provides a nice kick
