When it comes to entertaining, having a good cocktail on the menu is a must! And a simple one at that! Although I normally opt for champagne and always have it on hand, I’m switching things up for tomorrow’s 4th celebration and making what I like to call the best berry moscow mule.
Have you tried a Moscow Mule yet? If not, tomorrow is the perfect time to do so!
With very few ingredients, the Mule is an easy cocktail to whip up quickly and enjoy while celebrating Independence day! Simply add fresh raspberries and blueberries as seen here, for a festive red & blue twist.
I consider these Mules the best because they’re made with all fresh ingredients and Tito’s Vodka which just happens to be my fav, since it’s gluten free. Spicy ginger beer, tart lime juice, Tito’s and fresh organic berries. It’s tough to go wrong with this summer combo.
Not to mention the gorgeous copper mugs they’re served in. The handles give them a casual chic feel which is perfect for enjoying round the fire, or at night while watching the fireworks.
The ultimate summer cocktail.
Cheers!

Beautiful presentation with photos and I love that color of lipstick on you. I’ve always wanted to try the Moscow Mule and you just raised the bar with these beautiful berry Moscow Mules with that twist of lime. Your recipes are always so refreshing, enticing and so beautiful to look at.
Thank you! I hope you enjoyed your first Mule on the 4th! We’ll be making them again soon. Also, this lip color is still my fav! xo
I know it seems like the holiday weekend just ended, but I could use one (or two) of these puppies right now. They look SO darn good!
