A beautifully crafted Strawberry Moscow Mule cocktail served in a classic copper mug filled with ice, garnished with a fresh strawberry slice, a sprig of mint, and a lime wedge. The mug rests on a rustic wooden table with soft, natural lighting, emphasizing the refreshing and summery appeal of the cocktail.

Strawberry Moscow Mule

As a kid, the best part of summer was going out to pick-your-own strawberry patches with my family. We’d cart home boxes of the sweetest strawberries you could imagine. Now that I’m an adult, I like to mix this joyful summertime nostalgia with the best perk of being an adult: alcohol. Sweet strawberries set off the spiciness of the ginger beer which can be amplified with (if you dare) a sprinkle of black pepper.
