Given that we are almost to Derby Day, I thought I would post the ceremony for making a proper Mint Julep from General Simon Bolivar Buckner Jr. http://www.thebucknerhome.com/julep/index.html The recipe itself is a delight a to read: http://www.thebucknerhome.com/julep/recipe.html Being overcome with thirst, I can write no further. (with apologies to General Buckner) T.
Nice one ! Where's my muddler ? The cairngorm end of my sgian dubh should do nicely !
Great read. I'm informed they serve the premixed swill masquerading as a Mint Julip at the Derby itself. Best regards, Jake
