Method

Cocktail

1

Prepare mug

Chill a copper or tin mule mug in the freezer for 5–10 minutes if available, or fill the mug with ice briefly and discard that ice before assembling to cool the mug.

2

Add ice

Fill the chilled mug about two-thirds full with fresh ice cubes or crushed ice, depending on preference.

3

Build the drink

Pour 2 oz Irish whiskey over the ice, then add 0.5 oz freshly squeezed lime juice.

4

Top with ginger beer

Slowly pour about 4 oz chilled ginger beer into the mug to top the drink, leaving a bit of room to stir. Adjust ginger beer quantity to taste if you prefer stronger or lighter.

5

Stir gently

Use a bar spoon (or a long spoon) to gently stir the cocktail 3–4 times to combine the whiskey, lime juice, and ginger beer without losing too much carbonation.

6

Garnish and serve

Garnish with a lime wedge or wheel on the rim and optionally a mint sprig. Serve immediately with a short straw if desired.
