// mint julep //

Fancy having a fancy cocktail? Just because there's herbs in your drank doesn't mean it's too complicated to make at home. Luckily, my friend is a skilled bartender at Soundtable and even when we're just hanging out at home he is like the Iron Chef of drinks. He can make us something that tastes good AND looks fancy from whatever we have around. We had to make do and make mint juleps with some of my birthday Jameson (I got tons of booze for my 30th). Here's a proper recipe and here's something that sounds less complicated, but I think they're basically the same thing. Just have a few and you probably won't be able to tell...or you just won't care. ;]
