UPLOADED/REDIRECTED Forbidden Moscow Mule

Photography by Brooke Lark

The Moscow Mule took America by storm in 1941, and is credited with bringing vodka to popularity in the US.  All you need to make the classic version is vodka, ginger beer, lime, and a copper mug…the last item being entirely optional. The drink is so easy and versatile you can have some fun with it, and the variations are endless.

Our Forbidden Moscow Mule brings together some flavors of the tropics to brighten up the experience. Notes of grapefruit, mint, and cucumber deliver a sippable vacation at the beach.
