Do copper mugs change the taste?

Can you put Moscow Mule mugs in the dishwasher?

A 100% pure, unlined copper mug is the original Moscow mule accessory. Technically, they are dishwasher safe because they have no lining that would corrode.

How do you wash a Moscow Mule mug?

Copper mule mugs might be specialty cups for your Moscow Mule, but that doesn't mean they are a pain to clean. After you finish your cocktail, simply rinse the copper mug with warm, soapy water and dry it immediately. Your mugs will stay clean and last long if you put in 30 seconds to clean them after use.
