HOW TO CRAFT ONE SERVE
Step 1
Prepare your glass: Traditionally, a Mint Julep is served in a silver or pewter cup, but you can use any sturdy glass. Fill it with crushed ice to chill while you prepare the drink.
Step 2
Muddle the mint: In a mixing glass or cocktail shaker, gently muddle a few fresh mint leaves with the simple syrup. This helps to release the mint's aromatic oils and flavor.
Step 3
Add bourbon: Pour 2 parts of Jim Beam bourbon into the mixing glass or cocktail shaker.
Step 4
Stir: Stir the ingredients together gently to combine them.
Step 5
Strain: Strain the mixture into your chilled glass filled with crushed ice.
Step 6
Garnish: Garnish your Mint Julep with fresh blueberries and a sprig of fresh mint. Clap the mint leaves between your hands before garnishing to release their aroma.
Your Mint Julep is ready to be served! Sip and enjoy the refreshing combination of bourbon and mint, perfect for a warm day or any special occasion.
