MINT JULEP



Mint julep image

Sipping a mint julep is a tasty Kentucky Derby tradition, but we think this refreshing cocktail is also perfect for front porch sip, sip, sipping away sultry summer days. Our Mint Julep recipe is made with sugar syrup, mint leaves and your favorite bourbon poured over a mound of finely crushed ice. Serve this classic Southern cocktail in a frosty glass or sterling silver tumbler.

Provided by By Hallmark staff

Yield Yield: 1 drink

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 Tbsp. sugar syrup (see instructions below)
6 medium-large mint leaves, plus 1 bouquet of fresh mint
3 cups finely crushed ice
3 oz. bourbon

Steps:

  • Directions Place the syrup and the 6 mint leaves in a 16-ounce glass. Lightly bruise the mint with the back of a spoon. Fill the glass ⅔ full with the crushed ice. Add the bourbon and stir briefly to blend. Pack the glass with more crushed ice so that the ice domes slightly over the rim. Garnish with the mint bouquet and short drinking straws. Let the drink stand until a thin layer of ice forms on the outside of the glass, about 1 minute. Serve with a cocktail napkin to catch the condensation. Tip: Be sure the ice is very finely crushed (almost like a snow cone) or you won't have a real mint julep.

SOUTHERN BELLE MINT JULEP



Southern Belle Mint Julep image

A mint julep is the perfect respite on a hot day. Vivek and I have gone to the Steeplechase, the Nashville version of the Derby, where we fell in love with this quintessential Southern favorite. I add a dash of chile in the form of jalapeno in honor of all the awesome Southern belles I have met who pack a punch and have a dash of spice to their personalities.

MINT JULEPS

Sit on the front porch in your rocking chair on a sultry afternoon and sip on one or two of these. The proper way to serve a mint julep is in a frozen silver goblet, but you can use glasses instead--just use the most elegant ones you have! You can make the syrup ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for whenever the julep mood strikes you.

MINT JULEP



Mint Julep image

The mint julep is, as Chris McMillian of the Library Lounge at the Ritz-Carlton hotel calls it, "the very dream of drinks, the vision of sweet quaffings." Thousands of juleps are poured at Churchill Downs during the Kentucky Derby, but any time is right for a sweet sip of bourbon from a metal cup. Don't forget the bouquet of mint, which provides an essential aromatic pleasure as you sip.
