Cocktail Preparation

1

Prepare the Mint

Take the fresh mint leaves and gently bruise them by pressing them between your fingers to release their aromatic oils.

2

Mix the Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, combine the bourbon, sweet vermouth, simple syrup, bruised mint leaves, and Angostura bitters.

3

Add Ice

Fill the shaker with crushed ice, ensuring it is about 3/4 full.

4

Shake

Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until well mixed and chilled.

5

Strain and Serve

Strain the mixture into a chilled coupe glass or an old-fashioned glass filled with fresh ice.

6

Garnish

Garnish the cocktail with a fresh mint sprig by placing it on top of the drink.
