Everybody loves a classic Moscow Mule! But if you’re in the mood for something a bit more refreshing, try this twist on the all-time classic cocktail.
In a cocktail shaker, muddle the blackberries along with the lime juice until the berries are smashed down. Then, fill up about ¾ with ice and add the ginger beer, vodka, and syrup. Then shake, shake, shake until it’s all mixed.
Using a strainer, divide the drink into 4 glasses. You can also use champagne flutes. Top off your drinks with bubbly champagne or Prosecco. Decorate with fresh blueberries and mint, or garnish to your liking.
Don’t have any fresh berries? Try using frozen ones or replace them with strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries.
This Blackberry Champagne Moscow Mule is the perfect way to celebrate the weekend or to whip up when you’re expecting guests. Plus, this sparkling drink is so delightful, it will have everyone coming back for seconds!
