In our July 2016 issue, we provide a preview of the 2016 Tales of the Cocktail event, which takes New Orleans by storm July 19—24. This year, a pre-conference competition challenged bartenders from around the world to re-imagine the Moscow Mule within the following parameters: the drink had to have a base spirit (didn't need to be vodka), an element of ginger, and some sort of fizz. We've collected recipes from three of the stand-outs: the Lord Wotton's Regret (below), the Nazca Mule, and the Marigny Mule.
