A delicious and easy cocktail idea with seasonal flavors, vodka, wassail, and citrus. Ready in just minutes, this Christmas Mule is perfect for parties.
Add vodka, wassail, lime juice and ginger beer and give a gentle stir.
Top with bitters. (Do not skip the Bitters!)
If you want to, you can add a little ginger liqueur for extra flavor.
Add a slice of clove-studded orange if desired.
Notes
You don't have to use a copper mug, but they are a great way to make the drink feel extra festive and stay super chilled.
You can always adjust the sweetness level by adding more juice or even a little bit of simple syrup.
If you plan to serve wassail to the kids (minus the alcohol of course!), skip the garnishes. Cloves can be a choking hazard and the smell can be too intense for them.
If you don't have a Trader Joe's near you or the Wassail is sold out, you can make a spiced cider base like this one here made with cranberry juice.
