Mule Moscow Recipe
Moscow mules are refreshing on hot summer days, sure, but they’re also holiday-appropriate thanks to the strong ginger flavor. They strike that elusive balance between spicy, sweet and strong, and I’d sip one any day.

Notes
- Use high-quality vodka, fresh lime juice, and good-quality ginger beer for the best flavor.
- While not essential, using a copper mug is traditional and can enhance the drinking experience by keeping the cocktail colder for longer.
- A lime wedge not only adds a pop of color but also complements the flavors of the cocktail. You can also add a sprig of mint for extra freshness.
