Fever-Tree Strawberry Mule Recipe
Strawberry purée • ginger • botanical
Fever-Tree Strawberry Mule uses strawberry purée, not muddled berries or a floral syrup. That half-ounce of purée gives the drink its fruit-led direction alongside a two-ounce Gin pour and ginger beer. Combine the still ingredients before adding the bubbles so the strawberry does not sit at the bottom of the glass. The source calls the base simply gin; the existing IMPOSTER Gin association identifies the intended spirit-inspired version, but the exact bottle choice still needs confirmation. Serve it over ice for a casual afternoon menu, with a strawberry garnish that echoes the mixer rather than adding another measured ingredient.

About the Spirit-Inspired Version
In the IMPOSTER Gin version, the botanical base gives strawberry and ginger a cocktail frame. The purée brings body, while Fever-Tree Ginger Beer supplies the long, sparkling finish. The generic gin wording in the source should not be treated as proof that an arbitrary gin is zero-proof.
Serving Notes
Combine Gin and strawberry purée before topping with ginger beer.
Build over serving ice and stir gently; do not shake the carbonated mixer.
Variations and Substitutions
Without fresh strawberry
Omit the garnish if unavailable. Keep the purée measurement unchanged.
A floral alternative
Choose Strawberry Rose Mule for the separate Monin Strawberry Rose formula rather than swapping it directly for purée.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this use muddled strawberries?
No. Its measured fruit ingredient is 0.5 oz strawberry purée; the fresh strawberry is a garnish.
Which gin does the original specify?
The supplied Fever-Tree brief says 2 oz gin without naming a brand. This site's bottle association is IMPOSTER Gin; confirm that spirit-inspired adaptation before final approval.
Is Fever-Tree Strawberry Mule alcohol-free?
The source base needs confirmation. Check the gin bottle, strawberry purée, and ginger beer before making an alcohol-free claim; the current source recipe is not verified as a zero-proof finished drink.
