Laird & Company, America’s Oldest Distillers, announce the introduction of the Laird’s American Mule, a ready-to-drink cocktail made with its world-famous Apple Brandy.
“The base spirit is Laird’s Apple Brandy, made from fresh Virginia grown apples, not Vodka. We are Americanizing the Moscow Mule cocktail,” shares Gerard Laird-Dunn, 10th-generation Laird Family member. “Our Apple Brandy ‘kicks’ the Mule cocktail up several levels from neutral vodka!”
Spirit based ready-to-drink cocktails continue to enjoy double digit growth in all parts of the country, but none are made with American Brandy. Laird’s American Mule is made with Laird’s, all-natural, American Apple Brandy.
George Washington wrote to the Laird family requesting the recipe for Laird’s Apple Brandy. The Mule is one of the most popular and refreshing American cocktails, made with ginger beer and lime. It is often served in a copper mug.
Laird & Company, best known for Laird’s Applejack, is America’s oldest distiller, producing beverage alcohol products since 1780 in central New Jersey. Other products produced or imported by the company are G&W Bourbon, Lazzaroni Liqueurs and Moletto Prosecco.
Laird’s American Mule is available in a slender 355ml aluminum can finished with a copper hot stamped label.
