Pin ItIf you’ve been reading Sugar and Charm for a while, you know I’m a huge fan of Moscow Mules. We love adding a twist on the classic libation! We’ve created the best Gingerbread Moscow Mule and a charming cocktail-themed gift box.
A few years ago, we created our Apple Cider Mule, which was such a hit and now we’ve added a little holiday gingerbread twist to this one! This recipe has a delicious spicy kick to it, using gingerbread spices, and it’s perfect for winter months.
Serve it at your holiday brunch or Christmas dinner. Create a build-your-own Moscow Mule station where guests can whip up their own cocktail, similar to our hot chocolate bar. We also love sipping this with a bowl of reindeer food!
