The Mint Julep is a classic Kentucky cocktail – they sell them by the truckload at the Kentucky Derby — but this one, made for us by Ryan Lane (this guy above) at The Gresham, well, it was just one of the finest we’ve ever had.
Mint Julep
60 ml Buffalo Trace
10 ml Sugar Syrup (1:1)
8 mint leaf
Add ingredients to a julep cup, and stir with crushed ice until the tin is frosty cold.
