Moscow Mule is a delicious cocktail traditionally served in a copper mug. It is so easy to make and good for anytime. The lime juice and ginger beer makes it so refreshing on hot days. The ginger also gives you a hint of warmth, perfect for cold days. It goes well with a lot of different foods. (Try it with Asian food like stir fried noodles. It’s a wonderful pair!)

- Fill glass with cold ginger beer.

Notes
I recommend Fever Tree ginger beer because it's the best tasting among others that I've tried. It also has lower sugar than others. You can adjust the amount of vodka based on how strong you prefer your drink.
