1pt Island Mule Recipe

1pt Island Mule
In the spirit of island life, where time slows down and flavors come alive, this Island Mule cocktail brings together the rich sweetness of rum with an infusion of crisp mint, lemongrass, and ginger. Finished with fresh lime juice and the spicy kick of ginger beer, it’s a tropical cocktail that transports you to a sun-drenched beach with every sip. Refreshing and bold, it’s perfect for gatherings and easy to batch for larger crowds, making it an ideal rum cocktail to enjoy with friends.

STEP 1 - Easy All-Natural Infusion

Infuse Your Spirit:
Combine a 1pt Mint Infusion Blend Packet with 375ml of rum in any lidded container. Let it infuse for 5-6 hours, then strain, and reserve the infused spirit for your cocktails. (No need to refrigerate - infused spirits can be stored indefinitely at room temperature)

1pt Mint Infusion Blend Ingredients:
Long Jing, Lemongrass, Ginger, Peppermint - no sugar, gluten, dairy, nuts, additives, or preservatives

STEP 2 - Mix Your Drink

Ingredient Cocktail (1) Batch (8+)
1pt Mint-infused Rum 1.5 oz 375ml
Fresh Lime Juice 0.25 oz 4 oz
Ginger Beer 4.0 oz 32 oz

Mixing Instructions:
Combine the infused rum and fresh lime juice in a shaker with ice and shake until chilled. Strain into a suitable glass over fresh ice and top with ginger beer. For batching, do not shake. Instead, combine all ingredients in a pitcher with ice (adding 4 oz of water to mimic the dilution you usually get from shaking) and serve as normal.

Garnish:
Garnish with a lime wheel and a sprig of fresh mint to enhance the aromatic experience.

STEP 3 - Enjoy!

For an Added Twist:
Add a few dashes of aromatic bitters to deepen the flavor complexity and add a subtle spice note.

Food Pairing Suggestions:
Cocktails shine especially brightly alongside appetizers that bring out their full range of flavors. For this cocktail, try these ideas based on the vibe you’re going for:

  • Simple & Satisfying: Jerk-spiced roasted sweet potatoes with a drizzle of lime crema, adding warmth and a touch of earthiness that complements the cocktail’s refreshing notes.
  • Classic & Comforting: Jamaican-style shrimp cocktail with a tangy tamarind dipping sauce, offering a bright, zesty twist on the classic that pairs beautifully with the rum and ginger flavors.
  • Elevated & Elegant: Crispy pork belly bites with a spicy pineapple glaze, delivering a savory, caramelized richness that matches the cocktail’s island-inspired profile.
