| I plan to make mint juleps this weekend for a crowd, and don't believe I'll have enough fresh mint. Has anyone used peppermint extract or another substitute? If so, do you have a recipe to share?
And...what bourbon do you prefer? Thank you! |

| Nooooooo!! I wish I could give you some!! Doesn't take a lot....just a sprig per julep. I am not a bourboney bourbon fan....so I prefer a blended whisky....like Canadian Club!!LOL! But Jim Beam works and isn't a fortune. Muddle 1/2 tsp of sugar with a sprig of mint and about 1 tsp water in the bottom of a glass.....fill with chrushed ice and fill with bourbon and top with another sprig. Drink slowly....because they will put you on your ear! Linda C |
