Don't Forget: Copper Tarnishes. Your mugs will naturally develop a beautiful patina with use over time.  However, if you would like to keep your mugs looking brand new, you will need to take time to care for them. Polishing is necessary to keep the mugs looking new.  You can use citric acid as a polish (from fresh lime or lemon juice) or you can purchase Barkeeper's Friend. Either product will work nicely to keep your Moscow Mule Mugs looking like you just purchased them.MANUFACTURER'S DISCLAIMER - READ CAREFULLY.
