Spiced Orange Mule

Are you searching for the perfect New Years cocktail? We all know we need one after this year!⁠

⁠

This Spiced Orange Mule is a festive and warming drink to ring in the New Year. The sugar content of this bev is reduced by replacing the simple syrup with blended fruit, and by replacing some of the ginger beer with seltzer. Enjoy the heat from the ginger beer and cinnamon. Top with Champagne for a festive touch!⁠

⁠

It can also be enjoyed as a mocktail for your kids or if you just don't imbibe. ⁠

Recipe makes one drink.
