Miss Lara's Perfect Mint Julep Cocktail
- add review
- #54307
If you can't make it to the Kentucky Derby this year, don't sweat it. As long as you've got a mint julep in your hand you're as good as there! Mint, sugar and bourbon come together to make this southern standard.

ingredients
1/2 cup crushed ice
1 1/2 teaspoon extra fine granulated sugar
3 mint leaves
2 1/2 ounces bourbon
directions
Add ice to glass. Tear up mint leaves with your fingers. Tearing instead of cutting gives more surface area to the torn leaves, releasing more of the oils.
Put them in the glass with the ice and sugar and crush the leaves into the ice with the back of a spoon or handle of a wooden spoon or citrus reamer.
Add bourbon. Rub the rim of an old fashioned glass with a torn mint leaf. Garnish with mint. Cheers!

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
