The Mexican Mule

Why you are pouring this tonight

Swap vodka for tequila and the Moscow Mule picks up agave warmth and a lime brightness. A jalapeño slice if you want heat. Still served in a copper mug — tradition matters.

What changes from the Moscow Mule

Vodka out, blanco tequila in. Everything else stays.

What to pour it alongside

Al pastor tacos, carnitas, anything from the Mexican grill.
