- ¾ fluid ounce lime juice
- 3 ounces ginger beer
- Lime wedge optional garnish

Notes
Simple syrup: You can buy simple syrup at the store, or make your own at home. Simply mix a 1:1 ratio of water and granulated sugar in a pot on the stove, bring to a boil and stir until the sugar dissolves, then let cool and store in a jar in the fridge.
Serving suggestions: Gin mules are the perfect cocktail for dinner parties and holiday gatherings. Since you’ll only use a few ounces of ginger beer per drink, it’s easy to make a few of these at a time using just one can of ginger beer.
You can spruce up this recipe for the holidays using flavored simple syrup, like making a flavored version for Christmas with cranberry rosemary simple syrup. Add fun garnishes like cranberries and fresh rosemary sprigs for a festive touch!
