A Moscow Mule is one the easiest cocktail recipes to make, and it’s so refreshing!
Between the refreshing taste of the Moscow Mule and the fact that it is usually served in a copper mug, the Moscow Mule has become one of the most requested cocktails in America. While you may assume this lovely cocktail originated in Moscow, it is rumored that it was actually created by a bartender in Manhattan that had a too much vodka and ginger beer in the store room as well as a girlfriend that had a large collection of copper mugs. It’s funny how some of the greatest inventions can come from the need to use something up!
The Moscow Mule is such an easy cocktail to make whether you are making it for yourself or a crowd! You just need 3 ingredients and a couple of copper mugs to serve them in. The copper mugs are optional, but hey, who wants to drink one out of a glass? That may spoil the fun a bit!
