Are Moscow mules so last year?
Probably so, but as soon as this sassy hour cocktail came to mind I knew I had to go ahead and jump on the bandwagon. It's just so darn good!
I've seen all sorts of recipes for different flavored Moscow mules lately, and I must admit I want to try all of them. I won't deny it, though, these clementine and clove Moscow mules may be the best ones I've ever tasted.
And that's not because it is the only kind I've ever tasted.
Yes, it is.
The sweet flavors of Clementine and clove mingle so beautifully together and, if I can be honest here, I'm not the hugest fan of clove, but the sweet spice added to the ginger beer gives these cocktails the added pop of pizazz they needed.
Clementine and clove moscow mules would be an amazing cocktail to serve for any holiday party or event and would be fantastic for the superbowl too! We're still in the winter months so the warm, spicy notes of this cocktail can heat you up without weighing you down.
Sounds like a touchdown to me.
