The mint julep is one of the most popular bourbon-based cocktails. Aromatic and incredibly refreshing, it's easy to make with just a few ingredients. Besides bourbon, sugar, and mint, you'll need crushed ice. Crushed ice is essential, as other forms of ice won't create the desired effect. So take a little time to crush a good mound of ice before mixing this cocktail.
