The Kentucky Derby is this Saturday, and with our ever expanding selection of excellent bourbons weve been inspired to make Mint Juleps. Heres the recipe we love: 2 cups of sugar 2 cups of water 16 ounces - Kentucky bourbon, 2 oz. per mint julep Crushed ice 10 sprigs fresh mint 8 mint julep glasses Directions: Combine water and sugar in a pot and bring to a boil to make simple syrup. Boil for 5 minutes. Cool and place in a covered container with 2 sprigs of fresh mint and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours. To make your mint julep, start by filling each mint julep glass with crushed ice. Add 1 tablespoon of the mint flavored simple syrup then 2 ounces of Kentucky Bourbon. Stir rapidly with a spoon to frost the outside of the glass. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint. Sip and enjoy!
