I’ve never bought ginger beer, but ended up buying Fever Tree without knowing it’s the one you recommended! So I made this recipe, and the ginger was too strong for me. But that’s just personal preference – I added an ounce of simple syrup, and I like it much better. But I agree – if the ginger flavor is too weak, you just end up with vodka, tonic, and lime. I actually love those, but sometimes you need something with more bite – and this Moscow Mule does the trick! I’m using Baikalskaya vodka. It’s vodka made with water from Lake Baikal in Siberia. I spent a couple months in Siberia, and I brought it back to the States. Very smooth!

I feel that the ginger beer has lots of carbs and sugar so I used Goslings diet Ginger beer and it was still WONDERFUL!!

I’ve been a big fan of Moscow Mules forever and I don’t hesitate to share my love for them. Maine Root makes a great Ginger Brew as well. They call it wicked spicy! It is yum. When I can’t find Fever Tree, Maine Root does nicely! I use Pinnacle Vodka, also known as ‘baby goose’ (for Grey Goose Vodka)
I introduced Moscow Mules to 2 neighbors at outside socially distanced get togethers on my front lawn here in VT. this summer!

The best ginger beer – ever – is Bundaberg Ginger Beer. It can be hard to find, but if you can get it, give it a try. I’m sure you will agree! Love this site and try lots of your suggestions!!

I made your moscow mule a few weeks ago and it has become our go to summer refresher!! so delicious and refreshing. i have now started making it with vanilla infused vodka, and it gives it just a slightly sweeter flavor, but oh so good. love your blog and recipes, keep them coming!!

For a non alcohol version : sustitute the 2oz. vodka for 2oz. lemon/lime sugar free CBD sparkling water. Crowd pleaser for the “mocktails” type people.

You should try fentimans ginger beer, it’s a bit rarer but better than fever tree

Been drinking mules for decades and still prefer good old Schweppes Ginger Ale to the fancy new stuff like fever tree. Even though I admit fever tree has become my favorite tonic for GTs.
