Makes 1 cocktail

1 ounce gin

¾ ounce Simple Syrup

½ ounce fresh lemon juice

Fill a Champagne glass with ice and set aside. In a cocktail shaker, combine the gin, simple syrup, and lemon juice and shake vigorously. Discard the ice from the glass, strain the mixture into the prepared glass, and fill to the top with Champagne. Serve immediately.

Moscow Mule

The Moscow Mule was first served in a cold copper mug with two mules as a promotion for John Martin’s new product, Smirnoff vodka. This cocktail took off when it was first served to the see-and-be-seen crowd at the Cock ’N Bull in Los Angeles, circa 1939. Now people knew what to do with vodka: mix it with something else.

In the nineteenth and first half of the twentieth centuries, ginger ale was spicy with a strong ginger flavor. Today’s ginger ale is not as gingery and just won’t do for this drink. Seek out a strong ginger beer such as Blenheim’s Hot Hot Ginger Ale or Blenheim’s Ginger Beer, both of which have quite a kick—like a mule.
