Review:
Zingy ginger and gin's botanical notes make this much more than just another take on the Moscow Mule.

Adapted from a recipe created in 2000 by Audrey Saunders at Beacon, New York City, USA. Audreys's original (and our previous) recipe calls for muddled fresh ginger and sugar syrup (rather than ginger liqueur):

- 60ml (2oz) Gin
- 15ml (½oz) Lime juice
- 7.5ml (¼oz) Sugar syrup
- 12 fresh Mint leaves
- 82.5ml (2¾oz)Top with Ginger beer
Alcohol content:
- 1.6 standard drinks
- 13.16% alc./vol. (26.32° proof)
- 21.7 grams of pure alcohol
