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.

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.

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.
