Elderflower Julep
Ingredients
- 15 to 20 large spearmint leaves
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 3 oz bourbon ⓘ
- 2 oz St. Germain
Instructions
- Combine mint and honey in martini shaker. Muddle thoroughly. I use the end of a wooden spoon, as I don't have a proper muddler. You want the mint to exude some juices, and almost form a syrup with the honey so put some muscle in it!
- Put 2 to 3 ice cubes into each of two 7 to 8 ounce glasses, and set aside.
- Add the bourbon, St. Germain, grapefruit juice, and a handful of ice cubes to the shaker. Shake vigorously for about 15 shakes.
- Strain into prepared glasses. Garnish with a mint sprig if you're feeling fancy. Take a deep breath, relax, and enjoy!
