Peach Moscow Mule with Whipped Cream Vodka

This Peach Mule is bright, juicy, and perfect for warm weather sipping. Fresh peaches, zingy lime, whipped cream vodka, and spicy ginger beer come together in a peaches and cream twist on the classic Moscow Mule cocktail.

Whipped cream vodka is a fun way to add a creamy twist without actually adding any cream that could easily curdle. If you also love creamy cocktails, try my Strawberry Shortcake or Orange Creamsicle Martini. I also have a Peach Cobbler Cocktail that if you love the flavor combo of peaches ‘n’ cream.

Why We Love This Recipe

It’s a fun spin on the traditional Moscow Mule—fruity, fizzy, and full of flavor without being overly sweet.

Peach + Ginger = a flavor pairing that is a match made in heaven. The ginger gives a light kick to the bright sweetness of peaches. It’s basically summer in a copper mug.

Using whipped cream vodka adds a creamy, almost peaches-and-cream effect without having to worry about cream curdling in a drink.

Ingredients Notes

Fresh Peaches: Go for ripe, juicy peaches for the best flavor. If out of season, thawed frozen peaches can also work.

Whipped Cream Vodka: This adds a hint of vanilla cream flavor. If you don’t have it, plain, vanilla, or peach vodka will all taste great too — just less creamy.

Ginger Beer: Choose a bold ginger beer with a kick. Fever-Tree and Q Mixers are my go-to brands. Don’t swap in ginger ale—it’s too sweet and too flat.

Lime Juice: Freshly squeezed is always best. Bottled juice can work, but the flavor won’t be as bright.

Expert Tips and Variations

Make it stronger: Add a splash of peach schnapps for a stronger cocktail.

Make a Peach Mule slushie: Blend all ingredients with a handful of ice for a slushy-style version. Or, you can use frozen peaches.

Use creative garnishes: Try candied ginger on a skewer, mint sprigs, or even a cinnamon sugar rim if you’re leaning into dessert vibes.

Make it a mocktail: Swap the vodka for peach nectar or juice. Most ginger beer (including Fever-Tree and Q Mixers) does not contain alcohol, but double check the label to make sure.

Make it authentic: Copper Mugs aren’t just for looks—they keep your Peach Mule icy cold and enhance the ginger beer fizz.
