Why Do They Call It A Moscow Mule?
The Moscow Mule is a cocktail that originated in the United States in the 1940s. It is made with vodka, ginger beer, and lime juice and is traditionally served in a copper mug. The name “Moscow” comes from the fact that the cocktail contains vodka, which is a Russian spirit. The “Mule” part of the name is thought to come from the kick from the ginger beer, which is said to be reminiscent of the kick from a mule. The copper mug is also an important part of the cocktail’s history and tradition.
