Missouri Mule

Missouri Mule is an English cocktail made with a combination of bourbon, applejack, lemon juice, Campari, and Cointreau. In order to prepare it, all ingredients should be shaken with ice, then strained into a chilled cocktail glass. The cocktail was invented by the legendary bartender Joe Gilmore, who created it for President Harry S.

Truman and his home state of Missouri. The word mule in this case doesn’t refer to ginger beer, but the official animal of the state of Missouri.
