- Unsweetened cranberry juice. Do not use cranberry juice cocktail in this drink. It has too much sugar. Instead, use an unsweetened cranberry juice.

This was absolutely delicious! I love the flavor the ginger gives the cranberries.
Love holiday mules! I’m not a big fan of a classic mule, I think because the ginger always comes out strong. But with a nice blend of flavors in the mix, it’s just awesome.
I made this mule last night for our friend gift exchange and everyone loved it! So flavorful and easy to make!
