Next up in our whiskey cocktails was the perfect refreshing hot weather cocktail – the Mint Julep.
Mint Julep recipe
- 45 ml Bourbon/Tennessee
- 10 ml simple syrup
- 3 drops aromatic bitters
- Fresh mint sprigs
In a silver Julep cup, drop the mint sprigs and add aromatic bitters, simple syrup and whiskey then muddle. Fill the cup with crushed ice and mix well. Garnish with a mint sprig and serve.
These all came courtesy of a session with DISCUS in May 2017, Mumbai.
