I don't know why for for some reason these always taste better in the silver julep cups. Start sipping on one of these and you will immediately feel yourself relaxing!

Ingredients

  • 3 oz Makers Mark
  • Fresh mint about 8 leaves
  • 2 oz simple syrup
  • crushed ice

Instructions

  1. Muddle the mint and simple syrup in a silver julep cup. Add the bourbon and then fill the glass to the top with crushed ice. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Simple syrup- mix equal parts sugar and water. Bring them to a boil to thicken and then let it cool.
