Hightide Mule Recipe

Created by: Megan Ben, Bartender, Tony’s Saloon, Los Angeles, CA. 

Recipe:

  • 1 1/2 ounces vodka
  • 3/4 ounce Giffard Ginger of the Indies
  • 3/4 ounce lime juice
  • 1/2 ounce passion fruit syrup
  • 3 dashes cardamom bitters
  • 1/2 ounce float of Lemon Hart 151 rum

Directions:

  1. Shake all ingredients together, except the 151 rum. Strain over fresh ice into a copper mug.
  2. Float with a half ounce dash of the 151 rum — which may be lit on fire if desired.

Inspiration:

I love tiki and tropical flavors, so I wanted to incorporate those in to my take on the classic Moscow Mule. Fire is always fun, too!

I have been bartending for about five years, and a good portion of that time has been spent behind the bar at Tony's Saloon in the Arts District of downtown Los Angeles. If I wasn't a bartender, I would choose a career in the kitchen. I love creating new and delicious cocktails that are fun takes on classics with a culinary twist. One of my favorite things about creating cocktails is the prep in the kitchen, coming up with new syrups, infusions and other ingredients. I find my inspiration for cocktails in all kinds of places, such as 2 Chainz songs, the farmers market, and a search for how many ways I can use pamplemousse and maple syrup in cocktails.
