Moscow mules have been one of my favorite drink for years! The spicy ginger beer, all that fresh lime juice, and smooth vodka. When in doubt, it’s the perfect go-to drink.

If you’ve been following me on this blog for a while, you’ve probably seen my guava magic cookie barsguava rice krispie treatsbaked guava mimosa glazed donuts and MANY OTHER guava recipes. Yes, I love guava and I’m not ashamed to admit it.

I’ve tried different variations of moscow mule but adding guava nectar and basil to a traditional moscow mule recipe was a MAJOR game changer.
