Frozen Mint Julep

Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

25   Fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup 164g / 5.8ozSimple syrup - (equal amounts sugar and
  Water simmered until sugar dissolves)
3 cups 711mlIce
1/2 cup 118mlBourbon

Recipe Instructions

In the bottom of a tall glass, combine mint leaves and simple syrup and crush leaves with the handle of a wooden spoon -- the more you mash the leaves, the more mint flavor you will extract.

In a blender combine the simple syrup, ice, and bourbon and blend on the "ice crush" setting until ice is finely chopped and smooth.

Rub the rims of tall glasses with orange segments or a little simple syrup and dip glass rims in sugar, then fill with the frozen mint juleps and garnish with fresh mint sprigs.

This recipe yields 4 cocktails.
