  Can we just start this off with a simple fact: I love Moscow Mules!  My cousins are like siblings, and we all drink these constantly! I honestly can never have enough of these mugs!  That being said, I got another set of copper mugs that are used for Moscow Mules! This set is made by Copper-Natural and includes two 16 oz. hand crafted 100% copper mugs, as well as 2 stainless steel stirring spoons.  Comparing this to other sets of similar mugs, these are a little more expensive (list price is currently $34.80), but I also feel like these are a very nice quality.   I do like that they come wrapped in a nice cloth to keep them dry and safe. The included extra is also two stirring spoons as opposed to stars or shot glasses, which I like better, just because I know I'll use them.  The downside of these stirrers is that they are made of stainless steel and not copper like the mugs.  I would prefer the copper just for uniformity's sake.  They do feel nice in your hand though and do a great job stirring up your drink to help to keep it cool.

   The mugs themselves are a very nice quality.  The hammered indentations on the outside produce a very nice look in the sunlight as well as help to fit in with other mugs I have.  They have a nice opening as well as swell out to allow a good amount of drink in the mug.  I love that they are made out of all copper.  For those of you that don't know, the copper reacts with the acidity of Moscow Mules (the lemon in the drink), to create a better tasting drink. The copper also keeps the drink cool and adds a "refreshing" feeling to the Moscow Mules.   All of this, as well as a classic Moscow Mule recipe and care instructions for the mugs are included in an instruction book.  Too often you're given these mugs with little to no information on their usefulness, care, and recipes.  The care of these is important, as these mugs are prone to naturally tarnish.  They will develop a patina color over time, but it is easy to rectify this if you care for it correctly. Another feature that I like is the stamped name on the bottom.  This isn't anything crazy or useful, I just think it's a nice touch!

 

  This set is beautifully crafted, and is sure to be a hit with any Moscow Mule lover, or anyone with a cherished home bar.  With the holidays coming up, these would make a fantastic small gift for a friend or stocking stuffer for a loved one!  They would also be beautiful added to a basket of ingredients for a Moscow Mule gift basket!  You're for sure going to want to pick up a couple sets of these, and if you're giving it as a gift, do it right and get a high quality set!
