There’s something about a Moscow Mule that just screams ‘relaxation’. Maybe it’s the cool, crisp taste, or perhaps the unique serving style in a copper mug that makes it so special. This recipe is perfect for those looking to unwind after a long day or to impress guests at a gathering.
- 2 ounces vodka
- 6 ounces ginger beer
- 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice
- Ice cubes
- Lime wedge for garnish
- Mint sprigs for garnish
Fill your copper mug with ice cubes to the brim. This not only chills your drink but also adds to the iconic Moscow Mule experience.
Pour 2 ounces of vodka over the ice. Add 1/2 ounce of fresh lime juice. The quality of your vodka and the freshness of your lime juice can make a big difference, so choose wisely!
Slowly fill the mug with about 6 ounces of ginger beer, leaving a little room at the top. The ginger beer is what gives the Moscow Mule its distinctive spicy kick.
Garnish with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. The garnish adds a pop of color and an extra touch of freshness to your drink.
