Notes
Homemade Ginger Vodka:
Peel and slice 3–4 inches of fresh ginger (no need to be perfect—thin or thick slices work!). Add the ginger to a clean jar and pour in 1 cup of vodka until fully covered. Seal and let it infuse at room temp for 2–5 days, shaking gently once a day. Taste it after a couple of days—once it’s nice and spicy, strain out the ginger and store the infused vodka in a sealed jar. It adds a cozy, zesty kick to your mule!
