How to make a Mint Julep cocktail at home

  • 60ml Bourbon
  • 1 Teaspoon of Caster Sugar
  • 3 Dashes Angostura Bitters
  • 5ml Soda Water
  • 6 Medium-sized Mint Leaves
  • Garnish - A sprig of mint

Instructions

  • Into the bottom of a julep cup or rocks glass add the caster sugar, bitters and soda
  • Grind the mixture into a paste with a spoon
  • Add in the mint leaves and press gently with a spoon or muddler
  • Pour in the Bourbon
  • Fill with crushed ice and churn with a spoon
  • Top with more crushed ice well above the top of the cup

Andy's Top Tip - Also try this one with Cognac instead of Bourbon, I prefer it with the Whiskey personally, but the Cognac version is also an awesome drink!
