Equipment

  • Equipment Needed:
  • Jigger (or measuring cup)
  • Muddler or spoon
  • Cocktail shaker (optional)
  • Copper mug or glass
  • Strainer (if using a shaker)

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients
  • 2 oz vodka or gin for a herbal twist
  • 1 oz pineapple juice freshly squeezed is best
  • ½ oz lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 4 oz ginger beer choose a good quality for the best flavor
  • 1 sprig of fresh rosemary plus more for garnish
  • Ice cubes
  • Lime wheel or pineapple wedge for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Method
  • Muddle the Rosemary: In a copper mug or glass, add the fresh rosemary sprig. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the rosemary. This releases its fragrant oils and flavors. Be careful not to over-muddle; you want the essence, not bits of leaves floating in your drink.
  • Add the Liquids: Pour in the vodka (or gin), pineapple juice, and lime juice over the muddled rosemary. If you’re using a cocktail shaker, you can combine these ingredients there for a more chilled drink.
  • Add Ice: Fill the mug or glass with ice cubes. This will help to chill the drink and keep it refreshing.
  • Top with Ginger Beer: Pour the ginger beer over the ice and stir gently to combine all the ingredients. This helps maintain the carbonation.
  • Garnish: Finally, garnish with an additional sprig of rosemary and a lime wheel or pineapple wedge on the rim for a lovely presentation.
  • Serve and Enjoy: Give it a little stir, and enjoy your Pineapple Rosemary Mule!
  • Variations
  • Mocktail Version: Omit the vodka and increase the pineapple juice and ginger beer for a refreshing non-alcoholic drink.
  • Herbal Twist: Substitute gin for vodka and add other herbs like basil or mint for different flavor profiles.
  • Spicy Kick: Add a few slices of jalapeño for a spicy version of the Mule.
