Kiwi Mint Julep Recipes

Steps:

• Dissolve sugar in hot water in a 1-cup measure; let cool slightly.
• Combine ice, kiwis, limeade, mint, the sugar mixture and bourbon, if using, in a blender.
• Blend until smooth.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place the mint leaves in the bottom of an old-fashioned glass and top with the sugar. Muddle these together until the leaves begin to break down. Add a splash of seltzer water, fill the glass 3/4 full with crushed ice, and add the bourbon. Top with another splash of seltzer, stir, and garnish with a sprig of mint. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Shake the bourbon, mint leaves and sugar syrup with ice and strain into a highball glass or julep tin filled with crushed ice. Churn gently with a long-handled spoon and top with more crushed ice. Garnish and serve.
