What happens when a Kentucky mule goes to the tropics? Well, I can tell y'all it's one of the best summer-time drinks you'll ever taste. I've taken the flavors of a traditional Kentucky mule cocktail and given it a tropical twist with pineapple and mango juices. It's so good y'all wanna have brunch ever' day, just to have an excuse to drink it early.
