Tips for Making the Best Blueberry Moscow Mule

Making the perfect Blueberry Moscow Mule is all about balance. If you love the tangy taste of blueberries but don’t want to overpower the ginger beer, go easy on the muddling. Just crush the blueberries enough to release their juice without breaking them down too much. If you want a sweeter cocktail, adding a touch of simple syrup helps balance out the natural tartness of the blueberries and lime.

Why Use a Copper Mug?

Copper mugs aren’t just for aesthetics (though they do look great!). They keep your Blueberry Moscow Mule colder for longer, enhancing the crispness of the ginger beer and ensuring every sip is refreshing. If you don’t have one on hand, don’t worry—you can still enjoy this cocktail in a regular glass. But, for the full experience, the copper mug is the way to go!

Equipment

  • Muddler or spoon
  • Copper mug (or regular glass)
  • Jigger (for measuring vodka and lime juice)
  • Stirring spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup fresh blueberries
  • 2 oz vodka
  • 1/2 oz fresh lime juice
  • 1/2 oz simple syrup optional for extra sweetness
  • 4 oz ginger beer
  • Ice cubes
  • Fresh mint for garnish
  • Extra blueberries and lime slices for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Muddle the Blueberries: In a copper mug (or any glass if you don’t have one), add the fresh blueberries. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, crush the blueberries until they release their juices. This will give your cocktail that fresh blueberry flavor.
  • Add Vodka and Lime Juice: Pour in the vodka and fresh lime juice. If you prefer a slightly sweeter drink, add the optional simple syrup at this point.
  • Fill with Ice: Fill the mug with ice cubes to the top. This will chill your drink and give it that crisp, cold finish that’s key to any Moscow Mule.
  • Top with Ginger Beer: Slowly pour the ginger beer over the ice. The ginger beer adds a spicy kick that perfectly complements the blueberries and vodka.
  • Garnish and Serve: Stir the drink gently to combine all the ingredients. Garnish with extra blueberries, a slice of lime, and a sprig of fresh mint. Then, sit back and enjoy your Blueberry Moscow Mule!
