"A mule for the bourbon lovers"
The Kentucky Mule substitutes bourbon for vodka, hence the “Kentucky” moniker. The weightier profile of bourbon cuts through the ginger more noticably than vodka, resulting in a more flavorful drink than the original.
For the best results, use a high-quality ginger beer with a spicier flavor profile that can better stand up to the whiskey.
