I had the most delicious cocktail on Tuesday night, made even nicer by the fact that it was paid for by work whilst staying at a four star hotel, also paid for by work, accompanied by a 3 course meal - you guessed it, also paid for by work. Anyways, the cocktail for which I have been craving for ever since is a Strawberry Mule:

Strawberry Mule

Here's how to make a Strawberry Mule, one of my most popular stick drinks. Add four large strawberries to shaker glass and crush three or four times with 30 ml white syrup or one tablespoon white sugar. Then add ice to three-quarters of the glass, squeeze and drop in three lime quarters. To this add 60 ml vodka ? chilled is best, shake approximately six times, then pour into a glass. Do not strain. Top with ice and ginger beer. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint. Remember, when adding ingredients to the mixing glass always allow for a small amount of space at the top, roughly one to two centimetres. This will leave space after the cocktail has been shaken to add any extra ice or garnishes.

Drink, eat, enjoy: Strawberry Mule
