The Kentucky Mule is the southern cousin of the Moscow Mule. While it may not have quite the long history as some of Kentucky’s other famous cocktails, it’s still a fine cocktail. For the bourbon fans out there who are looking for something a little lighter and refreshing on those hot summer days this is it. It has sweetness, a little hit of acidity, and the rich fullness of the bourbon. Plus it’s very easy to make into a batch cocktail for when you have friends over.
