The Moscow Mule is said to be the drink that launched the Vodka cocktail craze in the United States in 1940’s. Since then it’s continued to be a popular ‘refresher’ drink. It’s so easy to make and really is a refreshing drink perfect for parties, picnics and all types of festivities.

Ingredients:

–       2 oz Vodka

–       4 oz Ginger Beer

–       ½ oz Lime Juice

 Method:

  1. Fill glass with ice cubes
  2. Add Vodka and lime juice
  3. Top the glass with ginger beer
  4. Stir to combine
  5. Garnish with lime

For the best flavour make sure you use ginger beer rather than ginger ale.
