This past weekend I went to the Revel in Atlantic City while some college friends were visiting. We had the most delicious delicious dinner at the Mussel Bar and I also came away with $75 more dollars to my name thanks to the slot machines. It was another fabulous night had by mostly everyone involved. I believe my friend Karla might have discovered that AC is just not her thing.

Here’s a recipe for a Moscow mule which I had at dinner. It’s a great refreshing drink and is a good way to kick off the month of August!

Moscow Mule
1 ounce vodka
1 tsp. sugar syrup
Fresh lime juice
1/2 cup ginger beer
1 sprig fresh mint
1 slice of lime
