Dr. L Dry Mule

 

 

Cocktail Recipe

A bold twist on a classic, The Dr. L Dry Mule swaps out the usual vodka-heavy mix for a crisp, dry kick of Dr. L Dry Riesling, bringing bright citrus, a touch of fruit, and a smooth balance to the spicy warmth of ginger beer. It’s refreshing, zippy, and dangerously easy to sip—because rules are overrated, but great cocktails aren’t.

Ingredients:
  • 2 oz Dr. L Dry Riesling
  • ¾ oz fresh lime juice
  • 1 oz vodka
  • 2 oz ginger beer
  • Lime wheel + fresh mint

In a mixing glass, combine Riesling, lime juice, and vodka—give it a good stir. Fill a copper mule mug (or any chilled glass) to the rim with ice. Pour the mixture over ice, then top with ginger beer. Garnish with a lime wheel and fresh mint—sip, savor, and repeat.
