It’s National Vodka Day!  Who knew?  And since I’m a total vodka and tequila girl, here’s my favorite Moscow Mule recipe, using Russian Standard Vodka.  The full-bodied wheat flavor of the vodka compliments the sweet and spicy ginger beer and allows the citrus from the lime to really shine and, of course, it’s best served in a copper mug.  Enjoy

Ingredients:

• 2 oz. Russian Standard Vodka
• 4 oz. of ginger beer
• 1 lime wedge
• Ice

– Build cocktail and ice over

– Add Rusian Standard Vodka

– Squeeze a wedge of lime and top with ginger beer
