Peach Tea Mule Cocktail

Celebrate summer and peach season with a Peach Tea Mule! A summery twist on a Moscow Mule, and a refreshing cocktail, ideal for summertime sipping.

A traditional Moscow Mule is made with vodka, ginger beer and lime juice. If you’re not familiar with ginger beer, it’s brewed with ginger root and is a spicier more robust version of ginger ale. Ginger ‘beer’ is a bit of a misnomer as modern-day ginger beer doesn’t contain alcohol.

The copper  Moscow Mule mug keeps your cocktail nice and frosty and is essential when the heat and humidity are in the sweltering range! Make sure your mug is lined with stainless steel which won’t react with the acid in the lime or fruit juice.

There are endless ways to customize your own Moscow Mule recipe. I used Sweet Tea Vodka and Peach Schnapps which I already had, but feel free to mix your own version using peach nectar, peach or regular vodka and a splash of sweet tea. If you’re a fan of sweet tea and peaches, I think you’ll find this summer cocktail very refreshing!

This is the type of cocktail that I don’t usually measure, mixing to taste. 

Fill mug half full with crushed ice, to each mug add: 

  • 1 ½ oz. Sweet Tea Vodka
  • ½ oz. Peach Schnapps
  • 1 – 2 peach slices, diced and muddled / smashed the end of wood spoon to release the peach flavor
  • Add ginger beer to top off and a generous squeeze of lime, stirring to combine.
  • Garnish with a peach slice or lime if desired.
