Ingredients
- 5cl THE DUKE Munich Dry Gin
- 3 cl apple juice, naturally cloudy
- THE DUKE Ginger Beer
- Fresh rosemary
Preparation
Place the needles from a small sprig of rosemary in a shaker with the gin and muddle the rosemary with a pestle. Add the apple juice and shake vigorously with ice. Then double strain into a long drink glass filled with ice, pour in ginger beer and garnish with an apple slice, a sprig of rosemary and a little cinnamon.
Tips
- Double strain through an extra fine sieve: herb fragments, fruit pulp and ice shards stay in the shaker.
- Press the herbs and fruit, do not grind them: crushed leaves release bitter notes.
- Add the filler last and stir once at most, so the carbonation stays in the glass.
- Shake hard until the shaker frosts on the outside, roughly ten to fifteen seconds.
Variations
- Bavarian Mule: With table horseradish.
- Munich Basil Mule: With BALIS Basil Ginger Lemonade.
- Munich Mule: With lime juice.
- Apple Moscow Mule: With LION's Vodka as the base.

About 5 minutes. It is shaken, and you need a shaker, a strainer and ice.
Which glass is the Apple Munich Mule served in?
We serve it in a highball glass. Fill it with ice first so the drink stays cold longer.
Is the Apple Munich Mule hard to mix?
It sits in the middle: a shaker and a strainer are enough. The defining ingredients are THE DUKE Munich Dry Gin, apple juice and THE DUKE Ginger Beer.
