Cocktail history
Nemiroff Mule cocktail is a signature drink from the Ukrainian brand with a unique combination of spicy flavours with a distinct berry hue. It is made using Nemiroff products, which have a mild taste without a pronounced sense of alcohol. As an alcoholic cocktail, Nemiroff Mule is a take on the classic Mule with an alcohol content of approximately 13%. It is a carbonated drink with a spicy ginger flavour and a light citrus tinge. As in the classic recipe, our variation uses Nemiroff vodka, ginger ale (beer) and citrus juice. The main feature of the drink is its presentation – the cocktail is presented in a copper mug (you can use a regular glass at home).
The United States is the birthplace of the Mule cocktail. There, it is appreciated for its mild taste and quick intoxication (called the ‘velvet hit’), which is caused by carbon dioxide from ginger ale. The Nemiroff Mule is an analogue of the classic drink, which was created in 1941 in New York’s Chatham Hotel in Manhattan. A year later, it became the most popular drink in Los Angeles, and then it was actively served to gamblers in Las Vegas casinos.
As with our other signature vodka cocktail recipes, we have enhanced the taste of this drink by adding Mure liqueur with a distinct blackberry flavour, as well as Strega liqueur with herbal notes.
Best pairings for this cocktail
Nemiroff Mule on vodka doesn’t really need food. The drink has a rich flavour with a variety of shades – spicy from ginger ale, sour from fresh juice, berry and herbal. It should not be overshadowed by food. If you do want to serve something, fruit slices are the best choice. It is best to take sweet and sour fruits: apples, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, apricots, strawberries, and others.

FAQ
Yes. Ginger beer is spicier and less sweet, so the drink gets sharper and closer to the classic Mule. With ginger beer, you can add a little more sugar syrup to keep the balance.
Without Mure the berry note goes, and a splash of blackberry syrup can partly replace it. Strega is harder to swap: its herbal taste is what makes this version different from the classic one.
Warm ginger ale. The drink loses its bubbles faster and the ice melts too quickly, so keep the ginger ale in the fridge until serving.
Mix the vodka, liqueurs, lemon juice and syrup ahead and keep them chilled. Add ginger ale to each glass just before serving, otherwise it goes flat.
Reduce the sugar syrup or leave it out. Ginger ale and Mure already bring enough sweetness.
