Ingredients

  • 60 ml Vodka
  • 120 ml Ginger Beer
  • 15 ml Fresh Lime Juice
  • Lime Wedge for garnish
  • Mint Leaf for garnish

Directions

  1. 1

    Place your copper mug in the freezer for 5–10 minutes. This will give the Moscow Mule that extra frosty feel. Squeeze 15 ml (0.5 oz.) of fresh lime juice. Fresh is best, so avoid using bottled lime juice if possible.

  2. 2

    In your chilled copper mug, pour 60 ml (2 oz.) of vodka and 15 ml (0.5 oz.) of fresh lime juice. Give it a little stir to combine. Add quality ice cubes or an ice sphere to your mug. The better the ice, the better the chill!

  3. 3

    Pour 120 ml (4 oz.) of ginger beer over the ice. This gives the Moscow Mule its signature fizz.

  4. 4

    Add a lime wedge and a mint leaf as garnish. Give it one last gentle stir to combine all the flavors.

  5. 5

    Your Moscow Mule is ready to impress. Serve it with a smile and enjoy the refreshing taste of this classic cocktail.
