Mexican Mule
Mule meets the desert
Tequila and ginger beer — agave's natural sweetness plays with ginger's spice. A mule family member everyone overlooks.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 oz Tequila
- 4-5 oz Ginger Beer
- squeeze Fresh Lime Juice
Method
Fill a highball with ice. Pour tequila. Top with ginger beer. Squeeze fresh lime juice over. Stir and garnish with lime wheel.
A tequila-forward variant of the Moscow Mule combining tequila, lime juice, and ginger beer. No documented origin, creator, or first publication date exists in authoritative cocktail sources. Per Difford's Guide #1306. Notes: the construction (spirit + ginger beer + lime) parallels the classic Mule template with tequila's agave notes replacing vodka's neutral profile; emerged within the broader mule-variation category in American craft-cocktail culture without traceable attribution.
