Well, the hotels are filling up, the restaurateurs are looking a bit frazzled, and the traffic is getting a bit worse so it must be that time of year – the Kentucky Derby. While I realize Derby Parties will be happening all over the world, I thought I’d provide a little bit of help to make those parties a bit more successful and authentic. Thanks to Jason for this link, and be sure to check out his Eastern Kentucky Mint Julep video.
I post this today because Julep Bourbon takes 2-3 days to marinade in the freezer. So do this TODAY!!!
Here’s the Maker’s Mark Mint Julep. After having some pretty badly made Juleps, this may just be the one to take home the roses this year. We have been going to derby parties as long as I can remember and hopefully some of you will check this out. And good luck on your horse.
Here are some others posting about this famous cocktail.
