How To Make A Mint Julep

Kentucky Derby coming up…
Forest of mint growing already in the herb bed…
A long day filled with appointments…
Bottle of Eagle Rare bourbon in the cabinet…
This afternoon, all signs pointed to a Mint Julep. Here’s how I make them:

Fill a low ball glass with a quarter cup or more fresh cleaned mint leaves.
Add a teaspoon of turbinado sugar.
Muddle well, then fill the glass with crushed ice.
Top it off with 2 – 4 ounces of high quality bourbon.
Cheers!
