HOW TO MAKE A MOSCOW MULE COCKTAIL

Jan 13, 2024by Lewis Griffin

The Moscow Mule, a zesty and effervescent cocktail, traces its roots to a chance meeting between three entrepreneurs in the early 1940s. Legend has it that John G. Martin, owner of a struggling vodka brand, joined forces with Jack Morgan, proprietor of the Cock 'n' Bull pub in Los Angeles, and a copperware manufacturer named Sophie Berezinski. In an effort to promote both vodka and the pub's ginger beer, they concocted the Moscow Mule, a refreshing blend of vodka, ginger beer, and lime juice served in a distinctive copper mug. The cocktail gained rapid popularity, aided by clever marketing and the rising appeal of vodka in the United States during that era. Today, the Moscow Mule stands as a classic cocktail, celebrated for its crisp and tangy flavour profile and its iconic presentation in a frosty copper mug.
hello i am a hidden space!
Here's a simple Moscow Mule recipe for you to enjoy:
Ingredients:
  • 50 ml Plain Vodka
  • 150 ml Premium Ginger Beer
  • 15 ml Fresh Lime Juice
  • 2 Dashes Angostura Bitters
  • Ice cubes
  • Copper Mug (optional)
  • Lime wedge and mint sprig (optional)
    Instructions:
    1. Prepare Your Copper Mug:
    • Fill a copper mug with ice cubes. The copper mug helps keep the drink exceptionally cold.
    2. Add the Vodka
    • Pour the vodka over the ice in the copper mug.
      3. Add in the Lime Juice:
      • Squeeze the juice from either half a lime (or 15 ml if using bottled juice) into the mug. Adjust the amount to your taste preference.  
      4. Top With Ginger Beer & Add the Angostura Bitters:
      • Pour the ginger beer over the vodka and lime juice in the mug. Choose a good quality ginger beer for an extra kick.
      • Add 2 dashes of Angostura Bitters to the mix.
        5. Stir, Garnish & Serve:
        • Gently stir the ingredients in the mug to mix the flavours.
        • Garnish with a lime wedge on the rim of the mug. Optionally, add a mint sprig to the drink for a fresh taste.
        • Your Moscow Mule is now ready to be enjoyed! Sip this zesty and effervescent cocktail through the copper mug for the full experience.
          (Don't worry if you do not have a copper mug to hand, any long drinks glass will give you a similar experience!).
          Cheers!
