This is a great cocktail for Thanksgiving because you can make each one individually OR you can make it in a pitcher and have it easy for guests to serve themselves. It’s also a classic enough drink that people aren’t apprehensive when you tell them you made something festive. Sometimes if you go all in on a big drink that’s super niche, no one drinks it. Trust me.
Everyone knows a Moscow Mule - and you can decide just how boozy it is or just how spicy it is by adding more or less vodka and go more sugary or less sugary on the ginger beer.
