Moscow Mule

Recently, I've been seeing a lot of bar go-ers enjoying a beverage in a copper mug... These drinks are referred to as a "Mule". It was one of the most popular drinks in the 1950's, and is appearing to be making quite the comeback, so I decided to try one out myself. Much to my surprise, it very delightful and quite refreshing. With warm weather right around the corner, here is a recipe for the classic Moscow Mule. There are other variations such as a peach mule, blueberry or an apple cider, but we'll just stick to the classic for now.

You will need: 

1. Regular Vodka

2. Ginger Beer 

3. Lime Juice

This beverage is very simple to make, what you do is....

1. Pour your desired amount of vodka over ice in a cup. 

2. Add a splash of lime juice 

3. Fill the remainder of the cup with ginger beer.

If you happen to have a copper mug then feel free to use this as your cup. However I'm sure a mason jar, or a regular glass cup would be just fine. That's it, three easy steps to a deliciously refreshing beverage for those upcoming summer months. However, you don't need to wait until then to try one of these things.
