This cocktail with pomegranate molasses is a refreshing twist on the classic Moscow Mule. A chilled minty pomegranate mule cocktail will heat up any gathering with its vibrant color and enticing flavor profile.
Fill a copper mug or serving glass of your choice with ice.
Place the mint leaves in the bottom of a cocktail shaker, lightly muddle the leaves with the end of a wooden spoon or a muddler if you have one – no need to mush or muddle them too much – just release the flavor – you’ll be able to smell the minty aroma.
Squeeze the lime and drop the wedge in the shaker.
Add the pomegranate molasses and vodka. Give it a quick mix.
Fill the shaker with ice cubes, cover and shake vigorously.
Pour the liquid from the shaker over the ice-filled copper mug and then add the ginger beer. Give it a quick mix again. Decorate with a lime wedge, mint and or pomegranate seeds if you like!

Notes
For Mocktail: sub club soda for the vodka (it was really delish as a mocktail)
