The story behind Siberian Mule
Sea-buckthorn syrup gives this Siberian mule its vivid tartness and cold-climate berry character. Ginger beer and lime make the vodka drink brisk and warming at once, a good early-evening serve after a cold day.
This is a Where It's Five house creation inspired by local ingredients and drinking traditions, not a historic national cocktail.
