Lemon Whiskey Mule,  the Irish Mule!

Katie Kelly

This lemon whiskey mule, otherwise known as the Irish Mule is one of my favorite Moscow mule variations. The combination of Irish Whiskey, fresh lemon, and ginger beer is so refreshing.

Irish Mule vs. Kentucky Mule

I love either type of mule. Irish Mules are always fun to make around St. Patrick's Day and they are super easy drinks to make for guests if you're looking for easy drink recipes for a St. Patrick's Day party. The Kentucky Mule is also delicious and perfect for a summer night. I think the flavor of the bourbon and the ginger are just so fresh and tastes like you're sipping on a sunset.

Ingredients for  Whiskey Mule

1. Irish Whiskey 2. Fresh Lemon or Lime 3. Ginger Beer or Ginger Ale

What’s the best whiskey for a mule?

You can use whatever whiskey you like. I like making an Irish Mule with Jameson, or I like making a Kentucky Mule with Bulleit Bourbon.
