Notes
Alcohol-free vodka: I LOVE this virgin mule even without the alcohol-free vodka, so don't worry if you can't locate one. They can be tricky to find!
Another option is adding a splash of apple cider vinegar or bitters to give the mocktail the bite that's missing from the alcohol. Apple cider vinegar is a by-product of alcohol so works really well.
Sugar/sweetener: I found this sweet enough and didn't need to add any sweetener to it. Ginger beer is usually very sweet. If you're a sweet tooth, feel free to add your choice of sweetener.
