Moscow Mule
Moscow Mule


Moscow Mules (and Dark & Stormys) are a great drink for hot summer nights.  They are light and delicious and very refreshing.  Moscow Mules are traditionally served in a copper mug but they sweat a lot and we find that an insulated tumbler works better for us.  Lastly, if you substitute dark rum for the vodka, you have a Dark & Stormy.

¼ lime
1½ oz vodka (or rum)
ginger beer (we like Barritt's)

Squeeze the juice from the lime into a 16 oz tumbler.  Drop the lime into the tumbler and cover with enough ice to fill the glass ¾ of the way to the top.  Add the vodka or rum and fill the glass to the top with ginger beer.  Stir.
