Kathleen Finnegan

straight up!

You probably recognize the name of this cocktail – round our circle of friends, we know it as Finnegan favorite.

Moscow Mules usually contain sugar syrup – which involves melting sugar and water together. To make it easier, I add Sierra Mist Natural as the sweetener instead of the sugar syrup… and did you know it is made with real sugar, no artificial ingredients, 100% natural flavoring? The addition of Sierra Mist adds a light, sparkling touch without adding too much sweetness. Your guests will love this potent cocktail that is refreshingly tart and very easy going down. A sprig of rosemary dresses it up for the holidays!
