The most flavorful pineapple and ginger Moscow mule recipe! Using fresh ginger juice and homemade simple syrup, this is the perfect Moscow mule recipe for summer!!
IN THIS POST
One of the best Moscow Mules I’ve ever had was at the SoHo House in West Hollywood. The ginger and lime taste we’re both very prominent in the co*cktail and none of the ingredients tastedwatered down! It was absolutely delicious! They generously shared the recipe in their book and the secret is… there is no ginger beer in the co*cktail!
It’s simply homemade ginger syrup, lime, vodka with a splash of club soda. Sometimes the ginger flavor in ginger beer can be subtle and watery, so this makes sense!
Also, another thing that’s different isthe simple syrup ingredients. Instead of equal parts water, sugar, and fresh chopped ginger, it’s equal parts ginger juice and caster sugar, which also adds to a more intense flavor of ginger!
We adapted it andadded a little less simple syrup and pineapple juice to the recipe. It’s so delicious!!
Pineapple Flower Garnish
If you want to take your co*cktail up a notch, make pineapple flowers! Pineapple flowers are dried pineapple slices that are shaped in a cupcake tin. They’re easy to make, just takes some time.

The history of the Moscow Mule
Despite its name, the Moscow Mule was first created in Manhatten in the 1940s. Made with vodka, ginger beer, and lime juice and garnished with a lime and mint leaves, it is a simple but wonderfully easy and refreshing co*cktail.
There are many variations on the original Moscow Mule recipe, including this Apple Cider Moscow Mule. One of the most famous is the Kentucky Mule, where the vodka is replaced with bourbon.
Why do Moscow mules have to be served in a copper mug?
Moscow Mules are traditionally served in copper mugs, like the ones you can see in the photos, and that’s not just to make them look pretty!
The metal cup keeps the co*cktail delightfully cold while you drink it, and it means the ice doesn’t melt as quickly which can result in the dilution of your drink.
