Method
Cocktail
Chill glass
If desired, place a mule mug or highball glass in the freezer for 5–10 minutes, or fill it with ice water while you prepare ingredients to chill the vessel.
Juice the lime
Cut fresh limes and squeeze until you have 0.75 oz (about 1/2 to 3/4 of a medium lime) of fresh lime juice. Strain out seeds and large pulp.
Build the cocktail
Fill the chilled mule mug or highball glass with crushed ice leaving about 1/2 inch from the rim. Add 2 oz Rocktown Vodka, 0.75 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.5 oz agave nectar directly over the ice.
Stir to combine
Use a bar spoon to gently stir the vodka, lime juice, and agave through the ice for about 8–10 seconds until the agave is incorporated and the mix is well chilled.
Top with ginger beer
Carefully pour 4 oz Fever-Tree Ginger Beer over the back of a spoon or directly into the glass to create a gentle top and preserve carbonation. Give the drink one short gentle stir (2–3 turns) to integrate without flattening the ginger beer.
Garnish and serve
Garnish with a lime wedge or wheel on the rim and an optional mint sprig slapped between your hands to release aroma. Serve immediately with a straw or short stirring spoon.
