The Mule lineup at Point Nine is all about crisp carbonation and bright, punchy flavors. We use Greatness Vodka as our house-pour for these, ensuring a clean, high-quality spirit that allows our fruit infusions and spicy ginger beer to shine.

Why Greatness Vodka?
We chose Greatness Vodka for our Mules because of its exceptionally smooth finish. Distilled with precision, it lacks the “burn” often found in lesser spirits, which is crucial when you want the subtle notes of cucumber or peach to stand out against the bold, snappy heat of the ginger beer.
The Point Nine Experience: Trailside Refreshment
Our Mules are the ultimate thirst-quenchers, specifically designed for a warm afternoon on the patio. They are an incredible partner for our Boudain Balls. The spicy ginger and bright citrus in the Mule cut through the rich, savory pork and rice, while the effervescence cleanses your palate from the creamy remoulade. It’s a bold, flavorful pairing that highlights our unique trailside flair.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the ginger beer spicy? We use a ginger beer that has a pleasant “snap” to it, providing a balanced warmth that isn’t overwhelming.
Are the fruit flavors syrupy? Not at all. We focus on bright, crisp fruit notes that enhance the drink’s refreshing quality rather than weighing it down with sugar.
