Seeing as May is the official month of the Kentucky Derby, try this classic Mint Julep cocktail.
- 5-6 Mint leaves
- 2 Sugar cubes or 2 oz of simple syrup
- 2.5oz your favourite Bourbon
- Crushed ice (cubes just aren’t the same)
- Put the mint leaves and sugar into a double old fashioned glass and muddle until the sugar has broken down and the oil from the mint leaves release.
- Add your Bourbon and crushed ice mixing the ingredients.
- Garnish with a mint sprig.
