MINT JULEPS
Sit on the front porch in your rocking chair on a sultry afternoon and sip on one or two of these. The proper way to serve a mint julep is in a frozen silver goblet, but you can use glasses instead--just use the most elegant ones you have! You can make the syrup ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for whenever the julep mood strikes you.

MINT JULEP
The mint julep is, as Chris McMillian of the Library Lounge at the Ritz-Carlton hotel calls it, "the very dream of drinks, the vision of sweet quaffings." Thousands of juleps are poured at Churchill Downs during the Kentucky Derby, but any time is right for a sweet sip of bourbon from a metal cup. Don't forget the bouquet of mint, which provides an essential aromatic pleasure as you sip.
