    My father first made this drink in 1933 at the downs and his recipe was: first the mint in the bottom f the cup and one sugar cube and muddle slightly, fill the cup with ice and pour the bourbon (100 proof) over the ice, stir three times and garnish with mint, add a straw and serve.

    My mother has an herb garden at her house, and a bunch of different types of mint. It could be fun to use different mints in this drink. So far, I've only made it with Julep mint. But, she also had peppermint, spearmint, chocolate mint, orange mint, and I think she even had wild mint growing in part of her yard.

    Wait what? “If you are watching the Derby or not.” What kind of cretinous scoundrel wouldn’t watch the greatest two minutes in sports. One that drinks vodka and soda I expect. Oh right, a great video as always Cara. Not watch the Derby, that’s funny.

    The drink shouldn't "pack a punch" because it is served in a place and time in which the ice would melt quickly, reducing the "punch" of the bourbon.

  • @johncox9868
    @johncox9868 Месяц назад

    The video was posted 1 day ago and the Kentucky Derby was 2 days ago. A little late. This is how not to make a Mint Julep. I have never seen or heard of a "flavored" julep, other than mint. You should use mint syrup (mint leaves steeped in simple syrup, preferably over night). The ice should be crushed finer. I use a shaved ice machine. You don't need a straw if you don't over fill the ice and it's a proper consistency (smaller). The ice should be to the top of the glass, not over flowing. NO bitters! If I was served this, I'd send it back.

      Why do people think that they are an expert and anything not done their way is wrong. Yes, your way will make a good mint julep. But it is not the authentic original way of making a mint julep.
