The perfect Moscow Mule uses an ingredient you may not expect! However, this pre-prohibition version of this classic cocktail will blow your mind! We'll start by talking about the history of the drink, which was invited at the Cock 'N Bull pub in Los Angeles. Next, we'll dive into the ingredients you need; ginger, lime, sugar, and vodka. We'll talk about why using fresh ginger syrup is so important, and makes such a big difference in the final cocktail. We'll also explore a strange bar tool, a swizzle stick, and how to use it for mixing drinks. Finally, we'll make a Moscow Mule as well as some famous variations of the drink, including a Dark and Stormy, a Bourbon Buck, and an El Diablo.
MOSCOW MULE RECIPE:
.75oz fresh lime juice
.75oz ginger syrup
2oz vodka
Add all ingredients to collins glass, add crushed ice and swizzle. Top with more crushed ice, and garnish with a lime wheel.
GINGER SYRUP RECIPE:
Peel 6-10 pieces of fresh ginger with a spoon. Cut into rough chuncks, add to blender, cover with water, and blend. Using a fine mesh strainer, strain juice from pulp, compressing the pulp as you go to get all the juice out. Put juice back into blender and add equal parts sugar to liquid. Blend until sugar dissolves.
