Blood Orange Mules

I like to think of myself as my family’s resident experimental mixologist. It’s easy to experiment when I have access to my mom’s liquor cabinet(s). Unfortunately, I’m not very good. But when I do make something good, it’s really good. 

Enter: Blood Orange Mules. The show-stopper in this drink is the blood orange liqueur, Solerno. Sweet and citrusy, it makes a great complement to a limey Moscow Mule. 

Blood orange and other citrus flavors may be traditional winter flavors, but I find nothing more refreshing than an icy cold drink or an orange straight from the fridge. It’s kind of like having orange slices after a soccer game...except for adults!

Ingredients (makes 1 mule):

1 shot vodka

½ shot Solerno blood orange liqueur

Juice of ½ lime

Crabbies ginger beer

Blood Orange (sliced) for garnish

Ice

Scoop a generous amount of ice in a copper mug (or any glass). Add 1 shot vodka, ½ shot Solerno blood orange liqueur, and squeeze ½ a lime into your mug. Top with Crabbie’s ginger beer and stir. Add a blood orange slice for garnish.

Hope you enjoy! Let me know if you make these and tag me on Instagram @milanocooky with your creation!
