Hospice Cup Regatta

If you are new to Hospice Cup, welcome! We are happy to have you aboard. Here are the basics of Hospice Cup to get you started.

Hospice Cup, Inc is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to raising funds for and awareness of hospice care in our region.

We do this by hosting an annual sailing regatta near Annapolis, Maryland. Hospice Cup offers several other opportunities to get involved, including various happy hours and socials leading up to the big race. We also have a Spectator Boat to watch the races and host a Shore Party after the races.

These hospices use the Regatta as a springboard to solicit sponsors and donors to support their various programs. All funds raised by individual hospices are retained by that hospice. Participating hospices are non-profit organizations and are both members of the national hospice and palliative care organization.

Hospice 2022 is focused on raising funds for Grief and Bereavement Services, which often is not covered by insurance. Visit our participating hospices for more information on these and additional services.

DAY TO DAY CLEANING

Because your Classic Mules copper drinkware is 100% copper with no coating (on the inside), they will oxidize/tarnish… but not to worry, we’ve got you covered! The best practice to slow the tarnishing is to wash after use (with minimal chemicals) and then dry immediately.

**Never Put In Your Dishwasher**

If you start to see some oxidizing/tarnishing, here’s some sure shot ways to get that copper shine back:

Shining Method 1

Shining Method 2 (what we usually do)

What you need!

• 3 tablespoons of Salt
• 1/2 a cup of Vinegar

Instructions

• Dissolve 3 tablespoons of salt into 1/2 a cup of white vinegar
• Once salt is fully dissolved, dip a cloth or sponge into the solution and start gently rubbing away the tarnish.
• After all the tarnish is gone, rinse with water and then dry immediately with a clean cloth.
• A variation to the above is to fill a spray bottle with the solution and spray the copper, let it sit for a while, then rub clean.

Shining Method 3

• 1 1/2 tablespoons of Salt
• 1/2 a cup of Lemon Juice
• Dissolve 1 1/2 tablespoons of salt into 1/2 cup of Lemon Juice
• Proceed cleaning your copper with the same steps as ‘Method 2’
• There are other cleaning methods out there if you search online… However, we’ve found the above 3 to be the best and safest methods.

Hope all this helps and we know you’re going to love your new purchase! If you haven't got one yet, have a look at our awesome pitchers below.

Moscow Muled

Top 7 rum mule recipes.

May 01, 2020

In this post, we discuss the Rum Mule, a delicious twist on the classic Moscow Mule. We also share the top 7 Rum Mule recipes to try today. Let's get started!

Introduction

In 1941, in a bar in New York, the famous Moscow Mule was invented. Since then, there have been hundreds of variations of the drink made across the world. One of these is the Rum Mule. This variation is based on the original mule cocktail but substitutes vodka for rum as its base alcohol. 

The Rum Mule is said to have first been made in Bermuda, just after the end of the First World War. Its main ingredients are dark rum, ginger beer, and lime juice. With this amazing cocktail people who prefer rum to vodka now have a perfect alternative if they’re looking for an interesting twist to the classic Mule. 

How the Rum Mule is Made 

To make a Rum Mule, you will need a shaker, highball glass, muddler, and a bar spoon. The original drink was served in a highball glass, but you can choose to use a copper mug, in true Mule fashion. 

Besides the basic ingredients - which are ginger beer, lime juice, and rum - ice and simple syrup can also be used. Other ingredients, such as fruits, can be added to introduce preferred flavors and aromas. If you wish, you can use ginger ale instead of ginger beer. 

Choosing Between Ginger Beer and Ginger Ale

Ginger beer or ale is the base of any Moscow Mule variation. Both are ideal for the perfect cocktail; however, they have differences that affect the final outcome in terms of flavor. Ginger beer has a longer history than ale, having been introduced in the mid-1700s in England. Ale came around much later in the mid 19th century, originating from Ireland. 

In terms of production, ginger beer is fermented, a process that leaves it with a small alcohol content. It’s made with a mix of ginger, water, lemon juice, and sugar. Ale, on the other hand, can be defined as carbonated water or soft drink flavored with ginger. Ginger beer has a stronger, spicier taste, and is, therefore, more effective at balancing alcoholic and citrus flavors in mixed drinks. 

Ginger ale has a mellow ginger flavor that will introduce a sweetness to your cocktail. It contains no alcohol and is lighter in color compared to the beer. Whichever you choose to go with, you can expect to benefit from effects such as suppression of nausea and improved gut health. 

To learn more about the difference between ginger beer and ginger ale, see our complete blog post on the subject. In addition, to learn how to make your own ginger beer, check our our complete guide here .

How to Choose Rum for Your Mule Cocktail

While ginger beer or ale is the common ingredient in every Moscow Mule variation, rum is the main ingredient here. Rum is an alcoholic beverage made from fermenting sugarcane molasses or juice. It’s clear that you have to choose a good quality rum for a great Rum Mule cocktail. To help you do that, you should  know about the different types of rum available. 

The following are the main types of rum:

• White Rum – Also known as light rum, this type is light-bodied and has a sweet flavor. It’s normally aged for at least a year. After aging, it’s filtered to remove color. Because of its mild flavor, it’s rarely taken alone and instead mostly used in cocktails. 
• Dark Rum – Dark rum is aged for a longer period compared to white rum, which gives it a spicier and stronger flavor. This type of rum is made from caramelized molasses and aged in charred barrels. The resulting color tone ranges from red to black, to brown. 
• Spiced Rum – While barrel-aged rum naturally obtains a spicy flavor, spiced rums have spices such as pepper, cinnamon, cloves, rosemary, and cardamom added to enhance the taste. Caramel is also added in some cases to intensify the flavor further. 
• Flavored Rum - Flavored rum is mostly used to blend tropical drinks, but it can also be enjoyed neat. This is rum that has been infused with the flavors of fruits such as pineapple, orange, banana, or lime. 
• Overproof Rum – While most rums have an alcohol content of 40 percent or less, overproof rum has a much higher percentage. Some have an ABV (Alcohol by Volume) of up to 80 percent.
• Gold Rum – Gold rum is medium-bodied and has characteristics of both dark and light rum. It has a stronger flavor than white rum but is less intense than dark rum. Gold rum has a dark amber color, which is as a result of being aged in wooden barrels. 

Choose Your Flavor

Flavor and alcohol potency are ideal benchmarks to consider when deciding what kind of Rum Mule to make. Using dark or overproof rum will give you a strong alcoholic base, while flavored and white rum will allow you to try less alcoholic and sweeter flavors.  Ingredients such as lime juice, mint, and fruits should be as fresh as possible to provide maximum taste and aroma. 

For an exceptional drinking experience, drink your Rum Mules in moderation. This will not only let you enjoy every sip and savor the flavors, but also bring about psychological health benefits such as improved cognitive performance and reduced stress. Studies have even shown that moderate alcohol consumption promotes euphoria and happiness. So, don’t forget to mix your favorite version of the Rum Mule the next time you’re hosting friends for a great time!
