4.7 from 81 reviews

A refreshing and flavorful Peach Moscow Mule featuring homemade cinnamon-infused simple syrup, fresh peach puree, and classic ginger beer for a twist on the traditional mule cocktail.

Ingredients

Scale

Cinnamon-Infused Simple Syrup

  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 stick cinnamon

Peach Moscow Mule

  • 2 oz. peach puree (from about ½ fresh peach)
  • 3 oz. ginger beer
  • 1 ½ oz. vodka
  • ½ oz. freshly squeezed lime juice
  • ½ oz. cinnamon simple syrup
  • Ice for serving

Instructions

  1. Make the Cinnamon-Infused Simple Syrup: Measure out the water and sugar into a heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, add cinnamon stick, cover, and let steep for 30 minutes to 3 hours to infuse the syrup with cinnamon flavor. Strain the syrup and refrigerate until use.
  2. Prepare the Peach Puree: Blend about half a fresh peach until smooth to make the puree. Alternatively, use peach nectar or frozen peaches if fresh is unavailable.
  3. Mix the Cocktail: In a copper mug or preferred glass, combine the peach puree, ginger beer, vodka, freshly squeezed lime juice, and cinnamon-infused simple syrup. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  4. Serve: Top the drink with ice and enjoy immediately for the freshest taste.

Notes

  • The cinnamon-infused simple syrup recipe yields enough for approximately 8 Peach Moscow Mules.
  • Substitute peach nectar or frozen/canned peaches (without syrup) if fresh peaches are unavailable.
  • Both the cinnamon simple syrup and peach puree can be prepared ahead of time for convenience.
  • For entertaining, multiply the recipe to create a pitcher. Use frozen peach slices instead of ice cubes to prevent dilution during serving.
