Mint Julep
A Julep is simply a mixed drink sweetened with syrup - but the mere word conjures up images of ante - vellum cotton plantations and a long gone, leisurely, and gracious way of life.
8 fresh mint leaves
1 oz simple syrup
3 oz Bourbon Whiskey
Crushed ice
Garnish: Spanked Mint Sprig
Technique: Muddle, Shake and Strain
