Mandarin Orange Mule
Share
Golden, gingery, and built for the whole table, this Mandarin Orange Mule swaps the usual lime-only base for something a little more unexpected. Real mandarins, cold-pressed, doing what a mule needs most: bright citrus that still holds its own against the ginger.
Ingredients:
- 2 oz Vodka
- 2 oz Twisted Alchemy 100% Cold-Pressed Mandarin Orange Juice
- 0.5 oz Twisted Alchemy Persian Lime Juice
- 3 oz Ginger Beer
- Mint Leaves (Garnish)
- Mandarin Wheel (Garnish)
- Lime Wheel (Garnish)
Method: Fill a rocks glass or copita with ice. Add the vodka, Mandarin Orange juice, and lime juice, then top with ginger beer and give it a gentle stir. Garnish with a mandarin wheel, a lime wheel, and fresh mint. Serve immediately.
Make it zero-proof: Skip the vodka and top with extra ginger beer and a splash of soda water. Same garnish, same golden color, none of the alcohol.
The Alchemist's Tip: Mandarin brings a little extra acidity to the mix, and citrus doesn't always love copper. We'd suggest reaching for a chilled rocks glass or copita instead of the traditional copper mug this time, it keeps the shine on your mug and the flavor exactly where it should be. Still love the copper ritual? Just make sure yours has a stainless steel lining.
