The Story Behind The Pineapple Moscow Mule

As summer turns to fall, one of the best cocktails to help you make the transition is the classic Moscow Mule. But of course, I always try to give every classic cocktail a twist, so with this delicious libation I thought adding some fresh pineapple juice would harken back to summer while the ginger flavors usher us into fall.
