So let me tell you how I came across this cocktail.

One morning, while nursing a hangover, I decided I quit. I won’t drink anymore.

No more heavy head. No more empty stomach through puking. No more embarrassment. I just have to stop drinking.

 Not even social drinking? Well… Maybe I’m lying there. I’m always gonna drink with buddies :) But I gotta do it right. That's when I came across Moscow Mules. A bartender gave me a this drink just a couple weeks ago. Pushed it over the counter to me… And….

Voila!

A drink in a copper cup was pushed over the counter. It has a lime wedge and some mint leaves on top.

I started tasting all the different Moscow Mule flavors. And I came across A rare version of the Moscow Mule.  The lavender Moscow Mule.

After three cups without feeling nauseous, I asked for the recipe. So here ladies and gentleman… here's a simple recipe to host your next guests with.
