Ingredients

Szechuan vodka
2 tablespoons szechuan peppercorns, crushed
32 ounces vodka
Mule
1 ounce ginger juice
2 ounces lemon juice
3 ounces simple syrup
10 ounces club soda
4 ounces lime juice

Directions

1

Add the peppercorns to the vodka, shake and keep in a dark place for at least 4 days, preferably a week, shaking daily. Strain.
2

Ginger juice can be purchased or made several ways. A juicer is best but you can also chop in a food processor and squeeze through cheesecloth. A less effective but workable method is to freeze it, thaw it and squeeze with all your might.
3

To make the ginger 'beer', mix the ginger juice, lemon juice, simple syrup and club soda.
4

Put ice cubes in a glass, add 2 ounces vodka, 1 ounce lime juice and 4 ounces ginger beer each to four glasses.
