Say Hello to Spring with These Cocktail Recipes from Stoli

Spring is finally here and we are ready to celebrate. We’re over the snow, tired of wearing layers and the only ice we want to see is a cube in our cocktails. Stoli Vodka is toasting the end of winter—and the arrival of warm weather—with two delicious new spring cocktails: the Stoli “Beer” Mule and the Stoli Cucumber Coupe.

With ginger-honey syrup and crisp pilsner beer, the Stoli “Beer” Mule is a flavorful twist on the classic warm-weather cocktail. Bright and bold, citrusy and refreshing—one sip of the new Stoli Cucumber Coupe will have you dreaming of sunnier days. Check out the recipes below:
