Ingredients
- 1 to 2 bottles ginger beer
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup organic white sugar
- 2 ounces vodka (potato vodka if GMOs are a concern)
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Simply Organic® Cardamom
Directions
- In a small saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Once boiling, whisk in the sugar and cardamom until dissolved.
- Once the sugar is fully dissolved, remove the syrup from the heat. Allow the syrup to fully cool before use. Tip: This syrup may be prepared in advance and stored in the fridge.
- Optional for smoother syrup: Once cool, strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve to remove any grit from the cardamom.
- Fill a copper mug halfway full with crushed ice.
- Add the vodka, 1/2 cup cooled simple cardamom syrup and lime juice. Stir.
- Top the Mule with ginger beer.
- Garnish with mint leaves and a lime wedge.
- Use 1⁄2 teaspoon of cardamom for a milder cardamom taste. Some vodkas are made from corn. Use a potato-based vodka if GMOs are a concern.
