Low-Carb Vodka Mule

by I Breathe I’m Hungry

Low-Carb Vodka Mule

Ginger beer is the base of a Moscow mule. As much as we love this flavorful mixer, we can’t ignore the hard facts. Ginger beer is full of sugar and, therefore, not suitable for a keto diet. Sugar-free ginger beer isn’t something you can find in the supermarket either… a major bummer. 

Luckily, this creative low-carb Moscow mule recipe helps you get zesty ginger beer flavor without all the carbs. To replace ginger beer, use a combination of diet ginger ale and homemade sugar-free ginger syrup. The rest of this recipe is business as usual: vodka, lime juice, and fresh mint garnish.

This keto variation uses mandarin-flavored vodka and orange extract instead of triple sec. Additionally, sugary cranberry juice is swapped for sugar-free cranberry drinks. Add a squeeze of lime juice as the final touch. Shake it all in a cocktail shaker, pour over ice, and garnish with a slice of lime.
