This Moscow Mule Margarita is a great twist to the very popular Moscow Mule! Made with tequila, ginger beer and fresh ingredients this drink is amazingly tasty.
Start with making the simple syrup by placing equal parts of water and sugar in a small saucepan. I used 1/2 cup of water and 1/2 sugar. Warm over medium heat stirring until the sugar dissolves. Let cool.
Use fresh squeezed lime juice if possible or bottled if you are short on time. Be sure to buy enough limes to add to the margarita as well to garnish the glass.
Place coarse salt on a plate. Rim glass with the juice of a lime then dip into salt.
Stir {do not shake} all the ingredients together. Serve over ice and garnish with a lime…Olé!
Notes
The simple syrup recipe makes enough for more than one drink.
