Introduction

Hello Cocktail Clan. Here is a simple yet fantastic refreshing cocktail.  Moscow Mule is three ingredients make up this cocktail.  You will use Vodka, Lime Juice and Ginger Beer.  You will Garnish this cocktail with a Lime Wedge.  This cocktail is best served in a copper mug but, if you don’t have one you can use an old-fashioned glass.

Here are the ingredients you will need:

Vodka

Find your favorite vodka and use it.  You don’t need to use the most expensive vodka as the ginger beer is really the start of the show.  The vodka I choose is Wheatley.

Ginger Beer

Get yourself a very good Ginger Beer.  Here is one of my favorites Bandaberg.  This Ginger Beer has a really nice spicy ginger flavor that makes this cocktail pop.  If you can’t find Bandaberg you can also use Goslings ginger beer.

Lime Juice

Now the best thing here is to use freshly squeezed lime for the cocktail.  However, if you don’t have lime available you can also use Nellie & Joe’s Key West Lime Juice.  This bottle has Fresh Water, Key West Lime Juice and a single preservative.  If you can’t find this, use any lime juice you like but, please ensure it doesn’t have lot of ingredients that you can’t pronounce.
