Ginger beer, tequila, jalapeño and lime get stirred together for a refreshing and delicious cocktail by lifestyle expert and Instagram influencer Hannah Bronfman.
"A mule is traditionally made with spirits and ginger beer," Hannah says. "This one has a jalapeño, because I love some heat in a cocktail. Jalapeño contain capsaicin, which can help relieve pain and may even promote weight loss by boosting metabolism. The capsaicin is also what makes this drink delightfully spicy. Tequila is one of my favorite spirits because it's low in carbs, doesn't spike your blood sugar, and mixes beautifully with spicy, sweet, and citrus flavors. And if you choose a tequila that is 100 percent agave, it will also contain a carbohydrate called fructan—which is actually a probiotic!"
