Mango Mule Cocktail

Mango Mule Cocktail

The classic Moscow Mule goes tropical with fresh mango infused vodka (copper cup optional).

If you are like me you buy a mango at the store and then realize a week later that you still haven’t eaten it. Sometimes this results in a perfectly ripe, deliciously juicy snack. Sometimes I wait too long and only some of the mango is still good. So after cursing myself for being such a decadent flibbertigibbet that I can let perfectly good food go (at least partly) bad I remember vodka.

This is how I make mango infused vodka: A liberal sprinkle of self recrimination and what now?, half a mango, a cup of vodka, and two days.

If you are somewhere cold right now I apologize, it’s 86 degrees here today. I’ve got the tropics on the brain and the sun at my back.

The waiting is the hardest part.

Really want a hint of copper but don’t own a copper mug? Throw in an old penny (just, please, throughly wash it first)
