Mephistopheles

Mephistopheles is a mule with a deliberate edge. Chili Vodka sets a measured warmth, lime brings precision, and honey syrup softens the contour. Finished with ginger beer, it stays bright, structured, and quietly addictive.

Ingredients

• 1.5 oz Chili Vodka

• 0.75 oz honey syrup

• 0.5 oz fresh lime juice

• ginger beer (to top)

• Garnish: mint bouquet and a dried chili

How to Make It

1. Fill a tall glass with ice.

2. Add Chili Vodka, honey syrup, and fresh lime juice.

3. Stir briefly to combine and chill.

4. Top with ginger beer.

5. Garnish with a mint bouquet and a dried chili.

Pro Tips

• Why Chili Vodka works here: the heat stays clean and aromatic in a long drink, so the ginger beer and lime still feel crisp instead of getting buried.

• Honey syrup texture: if using a 1:1 honey syrup, it integrates fast and keeps the finish smooth.

• Heat control: choose a spicier ginger beer for more bite, or a milder one to let the chili lead.
