See Chicago-native Keelin B.’s take on Copper Kettle, proving it’s well worth a trip to entertain clients!

“This is the most extensive mule menu I’ve ever seen,” says Keelin. “I’ve had the Classic, the Garden, the jalapeno mule and their tropical/pineapple flavored mule. All of the mules were incredibly smooth with unique flavor notes. But, beware! It seems these drinks are so carefully crafted and use such fine ingredients that it is very easy to slurp them down! They are refreshing, flavorful and do not even taste like alcohol.”
