A note about the copper mug
Using a copper mug for this drink dates back to when it was created in 1946, where friends with failing businesses combined their products to create the first popular vodka cocktail. You're not missing out if you don't have a mug, though. Like the Mint Julep, it's traditional to use one but won't effect the drink if you don't.
