Story
The Moscow Mule is a popular cocktail that was created in the 1940s as a way to promote vodka and ginger beer. The story goes that John G. Martin, a vodka distributor, and Jack Morgan, a ginger beer producer, were trying to sell their products in a Los Angeles bar. They decided to mix the two together and serve it in a copper mug to make it stand out. The drink became a hit and is now a classic cocktail.
