The Moscow Mule History
Since Moscow Mules first appeared in the 1940s, buying bulk copper mugs has been essential for all bars, restaurants, and events who are considering proper presentation. There are clear indications that using solid Copper Moscow Mule Mugs enhance the individual flavors of the ginger beer, vodka, and lime. Experts say that when vodka touches the walls of the mug, the copper begins to oxidize, slightly boosting the aroma, and enhancing the taste of the vodka.
Cold copper also has a tendency to increase the amount of bubbles in the carbonated ginger beer, bringing maximum fizziness to the Moscow Mule, when compared to being served in a plastic or glass container. The lime juice is also brought to life by the extra-cold copper, heightening the tangy citrus notes and reducing the acidity to better compliment the spicy ginger beer.
When these three flavors reach their maximum potential, they work together to prove that the Moscow Mule deserves its home among classic American cocktails.
Why are copper mugs better?
While there are a number of options for cocktails, many of glass, copper truly is the cocktail-cup royalty when it comes to the mule. Not only is it perfectly suited to keep the temp of your chilly, bubbly Moscow Mule, but copper is a natural substance and is highly durable to everyday impacts and the inevitable effects of time. Ultimately, its conductivity makes it an ideal choice for cold beverages with complex combinations of flavors–like the Moscow Mule!
What should you not drink in a copper mug?
Technically speaking, you can drink anything (within reason!) in a copper mug. However, you should NOT drink hot liquids from a copper mug–or anything made of pure copper. Copper is very conductive, which helps it keep cold beverages cold, but would make the mug dangerously hot to the touch if it contained a hot drink. Keep it iced, stay cool.
Copper Mugs are perfect for chilled cocktails, but are not insulated for warm drinks.
Are copper mugs healthy to drink from?
Yes. However, it is more accurate to say that copper mugs are not unhealthy to drink from. They do provide some level of resistance to bacterial build-up but should be washed regularly (like anything else you eat or drink from).
Why does a Moscow Mule have to be in a copper mug?
A Moscow Mule does not have to be in a copper mug–that is, unless you want to do it right. A true Moscow Mule will come in a copper mug not only because it was originally served this way, but also because the temperature-conserving properties and other qualities of copper enhance the bubbly, spicy, refreshing experience of a Moscow Mule.
