The Moscow Mule gets a delicious Italian make-over from the team at La Belleza

For sure it’s a cocktail classic, but we reckon the Moscow Mule has been made even better thanks to this spiced-up recipe – with an Italian twist – from the mixologists at Birmingham’s La Belleza. The added hit of acqua di cedro (a grappa-based lemon liqueur) gives the tipple a uniquely dry after-taste that’ll leave you purring for more. As always, please enjoy responsibly.
