I’d say that even if you aren’t a huge Grapefruit fan, don’t shy away from this cocktail. It can help and enhance the taste of the vodka and heighten the citrus of the lime, while also adding more fizz to the ginger beer. The copper also helps to enhance the individual flavors of the ginger beer, vodka, and lime. The cold metal from the copper mug is great at preserving the cold temperature of the liquid. Ask any Moscow aficionado and they will say they live and breathe by the copper mug standards.įor a drink that’s this well suited for summer, you need as much help as possible to keep the drink as cold and refreshing as the moment you got it. I’m glad you asked, because contrary to popular belief, the copper mug isn’t just all about aesthetics when it comes to how we serve up a Moscow Mule. From that point on the Moscow Mule was a household staple and is still served in homes and bars across America. Soon after, the photos began circulating, and it took off in American culture. The bar wanted to give a drink a very unique look, so they special ordered copper mugs to serve the drink in and began to photograph all the patrons drinking their cocktail out of these fun cups. It all started in the 1940s at a bar in Manhattan that began serving the combination of ginger beer and vodka. Moscow Mules actually have a really interesting back story. Once you try your first sip, you’ll have one in your hand for the rest of the season. The fresh grapefruit, spicy ginger beer, and tangy lime juice mix together perfectly with just enough vodka to make this an equally sweet and boozy weekend drink.
