    Copper Mugs-One of the most important parts of the Moscow Mule is the mug. The traditional copper mug keeps the mule extra cold and fancy to sip on!

    Garnish- A traditional Moscow Mule is garnished with limes slices and fresh mint and for the Christmas spirit, we added out favorite sugared cranberries

    What is Ginger Beer?
