Many thanks to Christi Hays and her dedicated team of volunteers for running a great tournament! Everyone enjoyed the Moscow mule mugs given as favors, and got to try them out at the Tuesday after-paddle gathering at the Sewickley Y paddle hut. Christi wants to share her recipe celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Moscow mule:
1 drink =
2 oz vodka
½ oz lime juice
4 oz ginger beer
¼ oz simple syrup
Cheers!
