Ginger beer, fresh lime, a copper mug. The Moscow Mule without the vodka, which, honestly, was never the most interesting part of the drink.
Ingredients
- 30 ml Fresh Lime Juice
- 180 ml Ginger Beer spicy, not the sweet kind
- Ice
- Lime
Instructions
- Fill a copper mug with ice.
- Add the lime juice.
- Top with ginger beer.
- Stir once.
- Garnish with a lime wedge and a mint sprig.
Notes
The copper mug matters. It keeps the drink colder and the mug itself gets frost on the outside. Worth the investment.
