If you love a classic Moscow Mule but wish it had a little more mystery (and maybe a curse or two), the Black Magic Mule is here to hex your happy hour. It’s moody, fizzy, and tastes like trouble — in the best possible way.
This is the kind of drink you sip slowly, make intense eye contact over, and pretend you’re plotting something.
⚡ What You’ll Need
- 45ml vodka
- 15ml fresh lime juice
- Ginger beer (to top)
- A splash of blackcurrant syrup or a pinch of activated charcoal (for that haunting black hue)
- Ice
- Lime wedge and mint sprig for garnish
🪄 How to Make It
- Fill a copper mug (or any dramatic glass) with ice.
- Add the vodka and lime juice.
- Pour in a splash of blackcurrant syrup or a tiny pinch of activated charcoal — watch the magic happen.
- Top with ginger beer and give it a gentle stir.
- Garnish with a lime wedge and a little mint — because even dark magic deserves a pop of green.
🕯️ Pro Tip
For an extra spooky touch, drop in a few blackberries or a sliver of dry ice for that bubbling cauldron effect. Just remember: look, don’t lick the dry ice.
This drink is all drama — dark, refreshing, and guaranteed to turn heads. Think of it as the mysterious stranger of cocktails: looks intense, tastes amazing, and might just leave you enchanted.
Cheers to midnight mischief and magical mayhem. 🖤✨
