Classic Mint Julep

Servings: 1 person

Equipment

  • 6-8 mint leaves

  • 2½ ounces bourbon
  • crushed ice
  • sprig of mint, for garnish

Method
 

  1. In your glass or metal cup, add a handful of mint leaves and your simply syrup or sugar cubes. Muddle well to release the aroma and flavor of the mint so it mixes with the simple syrup.
