Moscow Mule consists of vodka, ginger beer, lime juice and ice. The Moscow Mule is a favorite drink at bars all over the globe. However, it can be made at home easily.
While the history behind the Moscow Mule is interesting, it has also been modified and reinvented throughout time. However, there are some key elements that make it a timeless drink. While the origin of the Moscow Mule is still uncertain, experts believe it was created in Los Angeles' Cock 'n Bull bar in the 1940s. It is believed that Jack Morgan, the owner of the bar, had an excess of ginger beer in his cellar, and a friend John G. Martin, an executive at Heublein, a liquor distributor, had purchased the rights to Smirnoff vodka.
Both men had problems selling their products. They came up with a way they could use their products. The Moscow Mule was born of Martin's vodka being combined with Morgan’s ginger beers.
The original recipe only contained vodka, ginger beer, and lime juice. It has since been expanded to include additional ingredients and flavors. It's the perfect beverage for a sunny summer day.

The most important thing to remember when making a mule is to get the balance right. A Moscow mule that is light and refreshing should not be too sweet.

As a rule of thumb, no more than 2 oz vodka and 1 oz ginger ale should be added to any given drink. Syrups and sugary drinks such as liqueurs, should be avoided. They can mask the true flavor of the mule.
To create the best mule, shake the vodka, ginger beer and lime juice together in a cocktail shaker with ice. You can then pour the mixture into a mug of your choice and garnish it with a piece of lime or mint.

How To
How to Order Drinks at the Bar Without Embarrassing Yourself
There are many ways you can order drinks at your local pub, but you must know what type of drink it is before you go up to the bar. If you don’t know the type of drink that you want, ask your server for their recommendations. This way you won't be embarrassed when they make recommendations.
This involves talking with your server to tell them what type you want. You might say something like, "I'd like a glass of beer." Then tell him/her exactly what kind of beer you want. If you want Budweiser, for example, you might say "a Budweiser." Next tell your server the size you prefer (e.g. small, medium, large). Once you are done, the server will give you the correct price and you won't feel awkward ever again.
