I have been a fan of the traditional Moscow mule for a long time.

I love the fizz of the spicy ginger beer and the sour taste of the lime juice. I love how you can substitute the vodka with your favorite bourbon or give it a twist with fresh fruit.

I have made many versions of this classic cocktail.

My Kentucky mule is a nice variation with bourbon (I am a bourbon girl at heart.) The orange Moscow mule adds orange juice. The orange Italian mule adds herbal elements thanks to Fernet Branca.

Blackberry Moscow Mule

Today’s cocktail is a riff on the Moscow mule with the sweet addition of blackberry jam. It is great for Mother’s Day, as a signature cocktail, or just because you want to put a delicious twist on your favorite cocktail in an easy and exciting way.

This delicious cocktail is the perfect way to combine that blackberry flavor with a traditional Moscow mule. If you’re looking for the best blackberry Moscow mule recipes, this is the one because you don’t have to do any muddling.

Jam cocktails are my new favorite drink to make. When you add jam to a cocktail, you don’t have to use simple syrup to sweeten your drinks. The fruity sweetness of jam is more than enough, and you can change up the flavor of a drink so easily!

I have made a jam cocktail before – my strawberry mint jam cocktail has layers of flavor. And it is the recipe inspiration for this Moscow mule variation.

Can you use other jam flavors?

Of course you can use different types of jam!

Strawberry and raspberry jam would make delicious variations of this original Moscow mule recipe. You can also use the seedless versions, but I like to use jam with seeds.

I haven’t used jelly, marmalade, or preserves, but if you use them, I’d love to hear if you like them!
