We tend to overdose on health benefiting foods and drinks, and our latest obsession is ginger. From ginger chews to ginger beer, we’ve been soaking up everything ginger can offer and have moved on to ginger flavored cocktails. A light refreshing drink is perfect for the fall season and the Moscow Mule hits all the notes. This was created in the US by a vodka producer and ginger beer producer. The recipe is easy and the flavors are familiar making this a crowd-pleaser.

Ingredients:
4-6 ounces of ginger beer
2 ounces of vodka
1 half lime

Instructions:
1. Juice the half lime in a glass
2. Mix in vodka
3. Top off with ginger beer (to taste)
4. Add ice and mix

That’s it! You’re really adding a citrus flavor note to the ginger beer and trying to mask the vodka flavor. We prefer Reed’s Ginger Brew, and any basic vodka. Wodka Vodka is perfect for this.
