Kentucky Collins

I believe you may be referring to a "Kentucky Mule," which is a popular cocktail that can be found in many restaurants and bars across the United States. While there may be variations or regional twists, the classic Kentucky Mule is made with the following ingredients:

1. 2 oz. bourbon (Kentucky is famous for its bourbon production)

2. 1/2 oz. fresh lime juice

3. Ginger beer (to taste, typically 3-4 oz.)

4. Ice

5. Lime wheel or wedge, for garnish

6. Optional: Mint leaves, for muddling and garnish

Instructions:

1. In a copper mug or a highball glass, combine the bourbon and lime juice.

2. (Optional) Lightly muddle a few mint leaves in the bottom of the glass.

3. Fill the glass with ice.

4. Top off with ginger beer, leaving about 1/2 inch of space at the top.

5. Stir gently to combine.

6. Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge, and (optional) a sprig of mint.

The Kentucky Mule is a refreshing and slightly spicy drink, perfect for any occasion. Its popularity can be attributed to the enjoyable combination of smooth bourbon and spicy ginger beer. Enjoy responsibly!
