Moscow Mule

Spicy, fizzy, and famously served in a copper mug, the Moscow Mule is the cocktail that launched vodka into American popularity. Created in the 1940s as a marketing ploy for both vodka and ginger beer, this refreshing mix of vodka, lime juice, and ginger beer became an instant hit. The zippy ginger bite, bright citrus, and icy chill make it a crowd-pleaser year-round—and that iconic mug? It’s not just for looks—it keeps the drink frosty and extra crisp.
