About

The Vodka Buck is a simple, refreshing highball built on the classic 'Buck' cocktail format: a spirit, citrus juice, and ginger ale or ginger beer, served long over ice. Where the Moscow Mule uses ginger beer for a spicier, more assertive ginger bite, the Vodka Buck takes the gentler route with ginger ale, producing a lighter, sweeter, more delicately gingered drink that is approachable and endlessly drinkable. A squeeze of lemon rather than lime gives it a slightly softer citrus note that complements the ginger ale's sweetness particularly well. It's a great choice for anyone who loves the Moscow Mule but prefers something a touch less fiery.
