TGIF! I’m off to a wedding on Catalina Island this weekend and am feeling very ladylike today. How’s about a mint julep to sip on — who said whiskey can’t be a “chick drink”?!
Ingredients:
2 dashes of bitters
1 tsp of maple syrup
1 1/2 shots of bourbon
Fresh mint
*In a martini shaker, muddle a few mint leaves, add bitters, maple syrup, and bourbon, shake well and serve up with a few mint leaves for garnish. This is a sipper–trust me!
-XOXO Melissa
