WATERMELON MINT JULEP
DH and I aren't bourbon sippers, so the 1/2 cup required in this recipe doesn't justify my buying a bottle even to taste test; HOWEVER, don't let that stop you from "giving it a shot." Then, let me know how it was, o.k? Sounds wonderfully cool and refreshing.

HOT MINT JULEP

MINT JULEP
This recipe is from Alton Brown and is the best Mint Julep I've had. It doesn't look like much, but it's very refreshing. The one thing I do is bash the mint and sugar in my mortar/pestle, instead of a glass.

MINT JULEPS
Sit on the front porch in your rocking chair on a sultry afternoon and sip on one or two of these. The proper way to serve a mint julep is in a frozen silver goblet, but you can use glasses instead--just use the most elegant ones you have! You can make the syrup ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for whenever the julep mood strikes you.
