(Health-NewsWire.Net, August 25, 2015 ) Scottsdale , Arizona -- In 2014, Water & Wall bar manager Nick Seo was deciding what cocktails to add to his menu. He asked a longtime friend her preference. She suggested the Moscow Mule. Nick didn't know this drink but was game to try it. Quickly the Moscow Mule became the No.1 mixed drink at Water & Wall by far. "Some places consider Moscow Mules to be overrated," says Nick, "but at the end of the day, when people come in that are not familiar with craft cocktails, it's the one we suggest."
Moscow Mules are highly popular due to their simplicity. The ingredients are vodka, ginger beer, and lime all served in Moscow Mule mugs. According to some bartenders across the nation, Moscow Mules are experiencing unbelievable popularity.
Legend states that the drink was created in 1941 when two businessmen, one selling vodka and the other one selling ginger beer, couldn't move their product. They sat down together at the Cock n Bull, were "crying" in their (ginger) beer, and combined vodka and ginger beer. They added lime, and the Moscow Mule was born.
The Moscow Mule's signature is how it is served – in copper mugs. These mugs are recognized by their shiny color and their handles peeking out of purses and pockets. The mugs are so popular that the Marriott Marquis found 400 mini-Mule cups were stolen from the opening of their hotel. Bartenders state that they cannot keep the mugs in stock. According to Paul Taylor, bar manager at the Rhodeside Grill, he mixes up 70 of the drinks on weekend nights. Choosing copper mugs bring unbelievable attention to the drink, and the mugs disappear quickly.
In this era of mixed drinks, the Moscow Mule is an uncomplicated and flavorful concoction. Not only is it a classic, but the coolness of the copper mug makes the Moscow Mule very attractive. "It's like when you go to New Orleans. The first thing you do is get a hurricane in that special glass at Pat O'Brien's," Paul Taylor says. "It elevates that aesthetic appeal and it's good to have a standout glass that's eye-catching." Some say the popularity of the Moscow Mule is it's classic mug.

About Copper Mules
Being huge fans of the Moscow Mule, the Dalton's were getting tired of drinking them from mugs that were nickel-lined, not 100% copper or had been lacquered both inside and out which defeated the purpose of using them.
They decided to get back to the 'roots' of the classic cocktail and make Moscow Mule mugs the way they were meant to be... Solid, sturdy and with exposed copper on the inside of the mug to enhance the experience.
Copper Mules is owned by the Dalton family and is located on the outskirts of Scottsdale, Arizona. The Dalton's are dedicated to bringing the true experience of the Moscow Mule back to the consumer.
