The Moscow Mule

I had a Moscow Mule earlier this Summer, and found it to be a fantastic warm weather drink. That's because the copper mug makes holding and sipping the drink an icy cold experience. I liked the Mule so much that I sought out its unusual ingredients so that I could make the drink at home. The Moscow Mule contains a jigger of good vodka, the juice of one half of a lime, six ounces of ginger beer (not ginger ale), and ice. It must be prepared and served in a copper mug.

Delicious, refreshing, and lip-numbing cold!
