Sip Sip Hooray: The Roseberry Mule Adventure!

Ever whip up a drink and just feel like the coolest person in the room? I mean, that’s the vibe with this Roseberry Mule! Seriously, if you’re looking for a drink that’s refreshing and makes you feel like summer (even in the dead of winter, lol), then you’ve gotta try this. Now, where do I even start?

Main dish photo — *The finished dish — looks amazing, right?*

Okay, let’s talk ingredients.

You’re gonna need:
– 2 oz coconut water (not the sugary kind—go for the legit stuff)
– 1 oz lemon juice (fresh is best, trust me)
– 1 oz apple juice (the lightly spiced kind—makes a difference!)
– 1 oz pomegranate juice + a dash of bitters (don’t skimp on that bitters, it adds *pizzazz*)
– Fresh mint leaves (the more, the merrier)
– Ice, ice, baby
– Sliced strawberries and rosemary sprigs for that picture-perfect garnish (and yes, they taste great too)

So, imagine me at the grocery store, totally on a mission. I’m standing there, squinting at labels like I’m solving a math problem, and I’m just like, “Do I really need this much coconut water?” Spoiler alert: YES. Grabbed a couple of extra mint leaves because who doesn’t wanna feel fancy?

So here’s why I make this constantly:

Okay, let me spill a bit about the first time I made this. I was having friends over, and I was like, “I’ll impress them with my bartending skills!” I threw some ingredients into a shaker without even measuring (classic me), and it was a hot mess—but a delicious one! They loved it, and I suddenly felt like a mixology superstar. Now it’s our go-to anytime we hang out. We’ve had it on the patio, at BBQs, even during game nights! It’s just that kind of drink, ya know?

Now, here’s the one trick that changes everything:

Another beautiful angle of the dish — *Just as gorgeous from this angle too!*

When you’re shaking it up, really give that shaker a workout. I mean, shake it like you’re trying to win a dance-off! A good 15-20 seconds should do it. You want it super chilled and frosty. It makes all the difference in how refreshing it tastes. Trust me, I learned this the hard way—soggy drinks are not what we’re about!

And don’t mess this up (my top tips):

1. Fresh juice, fresh vibes – Seriously, juice from a bottle is a no-go here. Fresh lemon juice will give you that zing!
2. Mind the bitters – Just a dash! Too much and it’s like, “Whoa, what am I drinking?”
3. Ice, ice, baby – Don’t skimp on the ice when you pour it in the mug. You want that chill factor to the max!

How to keep them from disappearing (or, how to store them):

Okay, so here’s the thing—this drink is best when fresh. But if you wanna prep ahead, mix the juices and coconut water in advance and keep it in the fridge. Just remember to shake it up again before serving! Ice doesn’t like to be stored, so don’t add that until you’re ready to serve.

If you liked this, you’ll probably like these too:

– My Berry Basil Smash (it’s a summer fave)
– Sparkling Peach Lemonade (for the sweet tooth in you)
– Classic Mojito (because who doesn’t love mint?)

So, what are you thinking? Are you ready to get your cocktail game on? I wanna hear your stories too! Have you ever made a drink that just blew everyone away? Spill the tea! 🍹✨
