Is it happy hour yet, because pour me a mule!
Moscow mules are my VERY favorite cocktails to make at home and usually consist of ginger beer, vodka, and lime. This version adds some cranberry pineapple juice for a festive add-in!
Ginger beer is similar to ginger ale but with a sharper more vigorous burst of ginger. It’s very fizzy, and I personally love the spicy finish it has.
You can experiment with all types of juices or even infused vodka to create different flavor profiles. Another recent fave of mine is using cucumber vodka and watermelon juice to make a summer Moscow mule. 🍉 So refreshing!

Tips for making cranberry Moscow mule punch:
- For garnish feel free to grab frozen or fresh cranberries. My store doesn’t get fresh cranberries until October, but they have frozen whole cranberries all year. Plus, it’s like adding ice to keep the drink cool without watering it down.
- Consider serving in fun copper Moscow mule mugs like mine! If buying new isn’t possible, ask guests to BYOCC (bring your own copper cup to fill!) LOL! 😄
- Speaking of copper mugs, they make unique holiday gifts as well! I think putting together a cute Moscow mule kit with mugs, vodka, and ginger beer would be an amazing adult gift idea.
- Ginger beer can be found in the supermarket in the liquor department or with specialty sodas, club soda, etc. I like to buy diet ginger beer, however, it’s all a personal preference.
- Need a non-alcoholic mocktail? Swap out the vodka for sparkling water, tonic, or club soda.
I love this idea for a party cocktail!
Making a punch version of this popular cocktail is an excellent idea to avoid making individual drinks for each person while entertaining. I had it all set up so I could just add ice to each glass and pour from a pitcher! So fun!
I love the fruity taste of the juice, yet it’s not overly sweet at all. And of course the vodka ginger beer fresh lime onlinebo rocks.
