This Cranberry Moscow Mule is the perfect holiday cocktail! Thanksgiving and Christmas with the family just got a little easier.
I thought you all could use a cocktail recipe before Thanksgiving. A good cocktail here and there will help you stay relaxed and smiley on a day that can get a bit stressful.
It will also help you to ignore your weird uncle, Fred. Or whatever annoying family member you have to put up with twice a year. Of course, you only want to drink one or two otherwise you may end up telling Fred what you really think of him! Thanksgiving Family Drama!
This holiday cocktail is quick and easy to make. It is a mule style drink spiked with vodka and hard ginger beer. You can sub ginger ale for the ginger beer (that is how I prefer it). And the vodka can be swapped with your favorite spirit. Mine has been Tuaca ever since I made these Tuaca and Cider Roasted Pears. I love that stuff!

I have to say I think this is a much better use for cranberries than sauce 🙂
Haha! Agreed 😀
Whoa…vodka *and* a HARD ginger beer (instead of a non-alcoholic one)? This recipe isn’t playing around! Will have to give it a rip…nice work!
It is a great way to end a long week 😉
And a fast way to jumpstart a great night…
Saw a Mule recipe earlier that used hard ginger beer & moonshine…no half steppin’ there.
