Main Ingredients
Preparation
1. Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass or a cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Gently muddle the mint leaves with the sugar using a muddler or the back of a spoon until the leaves are fragrant and the sugar begins to dissolve.
2. Add Water
Pour in the water and stir the mixture to ensure that the sugar is fully dissolved. This will create a minty syrup base for your julep.
3. Add Crushed Ice
Fill the glass with crushed ice, leaving some space at the top for the bourbon and soda water.
4. Pour in Bourbon
Measure and pour the bourbon over the crushed ice, allowing it to mix with the mint syrup.
5. Add Peppermint Extract
Add the peppermint extract to the mixture for a refreshing minty flavor.
6. Top with Soda Water
Pour the soda water over the mixture to add a fizzy element to your julep. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
7. Garnish
Finally, garnish your peppermint julep with a sprig of fresh mint for an aromatic finishing touch.
