DERBY MINT JULEP

This Derby-ready julep doubles down on the mint flavor with a bright Mint Simple Syrup and fresh mint leaves. The julep cup is essential to the presentation. This recipe yields about 1 1/4 cups mint simple syrup, enough for 30 cocktails. You can also use it to make a refreshing non-alcoholic drink-add a few tablespoons to club soda and serve over ice.

Steps:

  • Make the Mint Simple Syrup:
  • Combine mint, sugar, and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Using a fine-mesh sieve or a colander lined with cheesecloth, strain mixture into a heatproof container and chill at least 25 minutes.
  • Make the cocktail:
  • Using your hands, lightly slap mint leaves, being careful not to bruise them, and place in a julep cup. Add 1/3 cup ice, then 2 tsp. Mint Simple Syrup. Pack another 1/3 cup ice on top. Add 1 oz. bourbon and stir. Add another 1/3 cup ice and remaining 1/2 oz. bourbon. Top with remaining 1 cup ice, tightly packing into a dome. Insert a straw into ice and garnish with mint sprigs.
  • Do Ahead
  • The Mint Simple Syrup can be made up to 5 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.

For the Mint Simple Syrup:
15 mint sprigs (1 bunch)
1 cup raw sugar
For the cocktail:
3 large fresh mint leaves, plus 3 mint sprigs for garnish
2 cups crushed ice, divided
1 1/2 ounces 100-proof bourbon (such as Four Roses), divided
Special equipment:
12-ounce julep cup
