The copper mug heightens the enjoyment of the Moscow Mule. Copper has a very high thermal conductivity so the coldness from your Mule will fly into your hands, lips and throat in an amazing way. This mug is 99.9% pure copper in the barrel and brass in the handle. It is available with copper or nickel (silver finish) in the interior, either one completes the copper mug effect, so interior is just a question of aesthetic taste. Moscow Mules are easy to make! Here's how: In a glass with ice, combine 2 ounces vodka, juice of half a lime and top it off with Ginger Beer. Garnish with a lime slice and serve in THIS copper mug. Here is the story of its invention in 1941 as chronicled in the New York Herald Tribune: "The mule was born in Manhattan but 'stalled' on the West Coast for the duration. The birthplace of 'Little Moscow' was in New York's Chatham Hotel. That was back in 1941 when the first carload of Jack Morgan's Woe 'n' Bull ginger beer was railing over the plains to give New Yorkers a happy surprise... Three friends were in the Chatham bar, one John A. Morgan, known as Jack, president of Woe 'n' Bull Products and owner of the Hollywood Woe 'n' Bull Restaurant; one was John G. Martin, president of G.F. Heublein Brothers Inc., and the third was Rudolph Kunett, president of the Pierre Smirnoff, Heublein's vodka division. As Jack Morgan tells it, "We three were quaffing a slug, nibbling an hors d'oeuvre and shoving toward inventive genius". Martin and Kunett had their minds on their vodka and wondered what would happen if a two-ounce shot joined with Morgan's ginger beer and the squeeze of a lemon. Ice was ordered, lemons procured, mugs ushered in and the concoction put together. Cups were raised, the men counted five and down went the first taste. It was good. It lifted the spirit to adventure."
