Moscow Mule Cocktail
Real ginger beer and freshly crushed lime ice transform this 1940s favorite into a crisp, refreshing cocktail with a twist. It’s zesty and slightly effervescent, perfect as a pre-dinner apéritif for adding a bright note to festive gatherings.
Ingredients
Makes 2 cocktails
- 2 cups ice cubes
- ½ cup vodka
- 1 to 1½ cups ginger beer
- Finely grated zest of 2 limes plus ¼ cup fresh lime juice (from 2 or 3 limes)
Directions
Place the ice and lime zest in the blender and select the ICE CRUSH setting to create crushed ice.
Once the cycle finishes, fill each glass two-thirds full with the shaved lime ice. Top each glass with 1⁄4 cup of the vodka, 2 tablespoons of the lime juice, and 1⁄2 to 3⁄4 cup of the ginger beer. Garnish each glass with a lime wedge and serve.
Pro Tip
Pulsing the lime zest with the ice cubes enhances the bright citrus flavor of the drink.
