Celery Juice Mule Cocktail
Celery juice, meet ginger beer. This mule shakes fresh-pressed celery with chopped cilantro and your favorite spirit, then tops it with ginger beer and a few edible flowers. It’s bright, savory and a little unexpected, the kind of drink that gets a “wait, what’s in this?” Swap the alcohol for sparkling water for a mocktail that’s just as good.
