Strawberry Moscow Mule Cocktail Recipe

We love the Moscow Mule for its refreshing combination of lime, ginger beer, and vodka. And adore that it too is a native Californian. The only thing better than the classic cocktail? Making it with strawberries!

Ingredients

For The Strawberry-Infused Vodka

1 pound strawberries
hulled and quartered
2 cups vodka

For One Cocktail

2 ounces strawberry vodka
2 sprigs fresh mint
1/2 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
ice
4 ounces chilled ginger beer
1 thinly sliced strawberry
for garnish
1 lime wheel
for garnish

Instructions

Make The Strawberry-Infused Vodka: Combine vodka and berries in a glass jar, cover, and shake, and let sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours and up to 72 hours.
Taste the vodka every 12 hours -- when it's as strawberry-flavored as you like, strain through a fine-mesh sieve, discard the berries and keep the vodka.
Make One Cocktail: Fill a copper mug or a Collins glass with crushed ice. Add 2 ounces of the Strawberry-Infused Vodka, 4 ounces of the ginger beer, and the juice from half of a lime. Stir to combine.
Serve The Moscow Mule: Tuck a mint sprig into the cocktail, add a few sliced strawberries, then serve immediately.
