Szechuan Mule

• 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

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.
