A lot of the mugs I've seen in stores are copper coated. I got a set off ebay last year for 4 solid copper mugs for $70. Unfortunately that seller doesn't currently have any listed. Worth a shot to check ebay though.

I love me some ginger beer and kinda Moscow Mules. I usually sub the vodka for whiskey or tequila.

Cost plus world markets has good selection of Ginger beer, but so do alot of grocery stores. Cock and Bull makes damn good ginger beer.

I have yet to purchase anything copper to use. Does it make that much of a difference?

Subbing whiskey for vodka would make it a Kentucky Mule.

2nd the recommendation on Cock N Bull ginger beer... also Bundaberg Ginger Beer is great for those who want a little less sweet.

Copper mugs don't really change the taste for me, but for me it does add some kind of nostalgia to it that makes it perfect for a summer night in the backyard by an open pit fire and a good cigar. Best one I ever had was in Scottsdale, AZ by the golf course... what a life.
