Rulings
One official ruling, as Wizards published it.

The ability is a mana ability, so it is activated and resolves as a mana ability, but it can only be activated at times when you can cast an instant. Yes, this is a bit weird.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.
