Baridi Mule Recipe

If you love a classic 'Moscow Mule' but want something a little cooler, bolder, and buzzy from coffee—not necessarily booze—meet your new summer sip: the Baridi Mule. Grab one at your local Peet's coffeebar or make one at home with this easy recipe.

This spirited mocktail (or cocktail, if you’re feeling adventurous) swaps the traditional vodka base for citrus-bright Baridi Cold Brew, pairing it with the spicy fizz of mint-lime ginger beer and a squeeze of fresh lime. The result? A bold, refreshing quaff that’s easy to make, endlessly customizable, and perfect for sunny days, brunch spreads, or that 3pm energy slump.

Whether you’re batching it for a backyard hang or mixing one up just for you, the Baridi Mule is proof that cold brew really does do it all.
