Known for its biting ginger flavor and copper mug presentation, a mule is a great drink year-round. Unlike its cousin the Moscow mule, which is made with vodka, this one has crisp Irish whiskey as its base. The ice and lime make it refreshing for spring and summer, while the spice of the whiskey and ginger gives it a kick that will warm any winter night. Enjoy it on St. Patrick’s Day or any day!
