Orange Cranberry Mosco Mule

Ready to shake off the stresses of the week and kick off the weekend in style?

Our Friday Cocktail segment has just the thing for you – the Orange Cranberry Moscow Mule infused with the exquisite Baton Brandy, topped off with the effervescence of ginger beer. This festive twist on the classic cocktail combines the warmth of brandy with the lively notes of cranberry juice, fresh oranges, lime, and a touch of simple syrup, creating a drink that's both bold and refreshing.

Baton Brandy, celebrated for its smooth and robust character, provides a rich foundation for this Moscow Mule, elevating its flavor profile to new heights. A generous splash of ginger beer to crown this concoction with a hint of spice, adding an extra layer of complexity and effervescence.

To craft this sensational libation, start by squeezing the juice of fresh oranges and limes into a shaker. Add a generous splash of Baton Brandy, a measure of cranberry juice, and a touch of simple syrup. Shake well, strain the mixture into a copper mug filled with ice, and top it off with the zingy kick of ginger beer. Garnish with a festive orange slice and a sprig of mint for a visually stunning and palate-pleasing finish.

Whether you're toasting virtually with friends or savoring a moment of solitude, the Orange Cranberry Moscow Mule with Baton Brandy and Ginger Beer is the perfect companion to usher in the weekend with flair. Cheers to a festive Friday night!
