    A Keto Mexican Mule cocktail is a simple and delicious way to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, or Friday or even a Tuesday. It is a twist on the classic Moscow Mule that uses Tequila instead of vodka for a light and refreshing drink that is super easy to throw together during a party! You know what else? If you make it with stevia sweetened Ginger Ale, it is Keto, Low-Carb and sugar-free!

    For those of you looking for a regular Mexican Mule, simply substitute your favorite Ginger Beer for the Ginger Ale and you're set!

    How to make a Keto Mexican Mule:

    Fill a copper mug or cocktail glass with ice cubes.

    Pour the Tequila over the ice cubes and squeeze the lime wedges to release the juice. Drop the lime wedges into the mug and stir to combine.

    You know you want one!!

    Notes:

    • I use these black cocktail/coffee straws to stir my Keto Mexican Mule, but a spoon works also. {affiliate links}
    • All of my mule cocktails are made using these Copper Mule Mugs because they are awesome!
    • For additional heat, slice up the jalapeno and mix it into the cocktail.
