3 US fluid ounces (89 ml; 3.1 imp fl oz) Bourbon whiskey 4 to 6 sprigs mint leaves granulated sugar, to taste

Put mint, sugar, and a small amount of crushed or shaved ice into the bottom of a julep cup or tall glass. (Optional: Muddle the mint and sugar, then let stand for a bit to allow the broken leaves to release their flavor.) Add bourbon whiskey, top off with crushed or shaved ice, and stir well to mix and chill the mixture.

Nice one, Randy.

Really like these flames of yours. As I have noted a couple of similar in your galleries. Appeal to my Apop artistic sensibilities, they do. :o)


Annnnnnd ... but of course, thank you for sharing this one with us. Good good to see you got your Apop mojo back. :o)

Appetizing. The Mint Julep is as southern as the colonel. Great creation.
