I’ve been such a fan of making different Moscow Mules at home ever since I got a pair of copper mule mugs! They’re so simple to make, and can be adjusted a bunch of different ways. I typically stick with a standard recipe made up of Hard Truth’s Straight No Chaser Vodka (we served this at our wedding!), lime juice, ginger beer, and then I add a twist!
This time I made a cranberry version that is perfect for the holiday season. You can find relatively inexpensive copper mugs at a ton of stores, but a regular glass works too if you don’t have any. Also, these make GREAT gifts!
