No reviews

A dark and dazzling twist on the classic Moscow Mule – this cocktail gets its bewitching black hue from activated charcoal while keeping the familiar kick of ginger and lime. It’s mysterious, fizzy, and utterly captivating.
Ideal for Halloween nights, candle-lit parties, or anyone who likes their drinks with a touch of drama.

  • Total Time: 3 minutes
  • Yield: 1 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 60 ml Vodka
  • 15 ml Lime Juice
  • 120 ml Ginger Beer (chilled)
  • A pinch of Activated Charcoal Powder (food-grade)
  • Ice Cubes

Instructions

  1. Add vodka, lime juice, and activated charcoal to a copper mug and stir until evenly darkened.
  2. Fill the mug with ice, then pour in the ginger beer slowly to keep the fizz strong.
  3. Give a soft stir to combine – the black shimmer should spread evenly through the drink.
  4. Serve cold with a lime wheel for contrast, and watch the color mesmerize under low light.
  5. Optional Garnish: Add a sprig of mint or a thin ginger slice for aroma.
  6. Optional: Skip the charcoal for a golden classic mule or add black food coloring for a similar look.
