Now I’m no bartender nor do I pretend to be, but I want to learn how to make easy and delicious cocktails that don’t take a bunch of fancy ingredients or need a ton of skill. I seriously love Moscow mules and I really have a thing for berries, so I combined them together and was pleasantly surprised! This drink is super refreshing for a hot summers day and is sooo easy to make, even for us not-so-expereinced-drink-makers. A perfect combo if you ask me!

The ingredient list is simple and you might just have it all in your house already.

TIP: I like to use frozen berries, especially on a hot day, because it keeps your drink cold for longer without diluting it with a bunch of water (you know when you get to the bottom of a iced drink and it basically tastes like water because it’s so diluted from the melted ice? Ya, no thanks. I like to enjoy my drink all the way to the end!)

The instructions might be even simpler. Add everything to a glass, give a little stir, and enjoy!
