Gluten Free Cranberry Moscow Mule
This festive cocktail is tart, fizzy, and refreshing — the kind of drink that looks stunning in a copper mug and tastes even better than it looks. Cranberry juice and freshly squeezed lime bring a bright, tangy punch, while ginger beer adds that signature spicy fizz that makes a Moscow Mule so satisfying. Vodka is naturally free of gluten, and the rest of the ingredients here are straightforward and clean, so there's no need to stress about hidden grains sneaking into your glass. The trick to keeping it perfectly bubbly is pouring the ginger beer slowly down the side of the mug — a small step that makes a big difference. It comes together in minutes with zero cooking required, making it an effortless pour for a dinner party, holiday gathering, or a quiet night in. Garnish with a few cranberries and a lime wheel and it's practically ready for its close-up.
