Henny Passion Mule Recipe

Chill glass

Place your copper mule mug or highball glass in the freezer for a few minutes or fill with ice water to chill while you prepare ingredients. Discard ice water before building the drink.

Combine base ingredients

In the chilled mug or a mixing glass, add 2 oz Hennessy V.S, 1.5 oz passion fruit nectar, 0.5 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.25 oz simple syrup (add only if you prefer slightly sweeter).

If using fresh passion fruit

If you have a fresh passion fruit half instead of nectar, scoop seeds and pulp from half a passion fruit into the mixing glass and lightly muddle to release juices. Then add Hennessy and lime juice. Omit the nectar in that case.

Add ice and top

Fill the mug with crushed ice (about 1 cup). Pour the combined spirit and fruit mixture over the ice, then top gently with 4 oz chilled ginger beer. Stir gently 2–3 times with a bar spoon to combine without losing carbonation.

Garnish the drink with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim, a sprig of fresh mint tucked into the ice, and if available, spoon a few passion fruit seeds or place the half passion fruit (cut side up) on top for visual appeal.

Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy. Optionally provide a small stirring spoon so the guest can remix if the ginger beer settles.

Use a jigger to measure spirits and juices for consistency. Use a bar spoon to gently combine the ginger beer with the spirit-fruit mix. If muddling fresh passion fruit, use a muddler or the back of a spoon to press pulp and seeds against the glass gently.
