A Very Merry Moscow Mule

The holidays are upon us and while I have a few recipes I’ll be sharing with you leading up to Christmas, today, I’m sharing a Holiday Cocktail perfect for an at-home happy hour, holiday dinner or brunch!

Fun Fact: I was a bartender for about 8 years! I loved creating tasty cocktails while getting to meet new people – the money was great too! I love experimenting with vodka concoctions and Moscow mules are my go-to choice when dining out – they’re so fresh!

There are certain flavors that scream holiday: cranberry, cinnamon, clementines… and I love me some sugared rosemary so I had to add that as a garnish for a little hint of flavor in this super refreshing mule! I promise you, don’t skip the rosemary – its TOO good! You can serve these in the traditional copper mugs or a simple glass, whatever you have readily available!
