Champagne mule with fresh lime, mint, and homepade ginger syrup will be the hit of your summer parties
Days are getting longer, weather is getting warmer, and I’m getting thirstier for a refreshing cocktail with a little sweetness and a little more bite.

Champagne mule with vodka, mint, lime, and homepage ginger syrup
We started making this Champagne Mule last summer for lazy weekend brunches on the patio. You guys know how much I love all kinds of mules – this bubbly version makes any day feel like a celebration.

Homemade ginger simple syrup
I keep a jar of ginger simple syrup in the fridge at all times now. Brad and I like to keep things spicy so I let the ginger infuse the syrup as long as possible. If you prefer a little less bite, strain out the ginger after a week.

Entertain right this summer with refreshing and bubbly champagne mules
Vodka is the traditional booze of choice for mules as it was the basis for the original Moscow Mule, but I prefer gin for a little extra sharp flavor. Either works here.

A mule isn’t the same without the frosty copper cup. These gorgeous copper champagne flutes were made for this drink – even though I originally bought them for a holiday spin on the French 75.

Refreshing and bubbly champagne mules are the drink of the summer
Sweet, spicy, fizzy and most of all refreshing. Whether you’re enjoying an intimate afternoon in the sunshine with a close friend or blowing away your guests at a party, this is the cocktail of your summer.

Super refreshing champagne mules are the drink of the summer
