You can always make the "poor man's mint julep," too. Brush your teeth and then take a shot of bourbon.

@marblemadness8870 3 года назад

Yeah, too bad the bourbon is actually the most expensive ingredient. Even with Kentucky Deluxe or Carstairs, the bourbon is more expensive than the sugar, mint & bitters.

Great video and thanks for the heads up about muddling. I really appreciate how you give both metric and imperial measurements in the latter videos.

I've got loads of mint growing in the summer. I will be trying this out for sure!

@ramencurry6672 7 месяцев назад

During mild winter, mint still grows in my garden and can be enjoyed on warmer weather winter days when it’s 60 degrees Fahrenheit

Well sir, I just made a Mint Julep a'la Steve, and it tastes just damn delicious! We got ourselves a storm brewing here in Louisiana, and so the weather is nice and humid which is to say that this mint julep hit the spot! My only critique of myself would be that I need to get some fresh mint (or plant my own mint bush), because I can tell that this is store-bought mint. So the way I see it, whether it be the "old school" method or your method, either is going to make a tasty drink that'll go great with a balmy, summer evening...lol. As always, keep up the good work, chief! Sláinte!

@StevetheBartender_ 7 лет назад

Glad to here you like the "steve method"! Haha Can always tell the difference between homegrown and store bought mint! The store bought usually doesn't even compare..

@scarredman42 Год назад

I like my mixed drink neat. I need to find a bar that will have mints.

@jacobnorton4413 7 лет назад

Hmmmm, I'm going to have to try this method out, chief. I usually build the drink in the Julep cup by lightly muddling my mint with the syrup, then I add my bourbon and crushed ice; however, this looks a bit less complicated (plus I will admit, the shaker is my favourite part of mixing drinks..lol). Also, before I put the extra mint as garnish, I like to give the sprig a good slap in my palm...that gets the oils and aromas going nicely. As always, keep up the good work, chief! Look forward to trying this method out!

@StevetheBartender_ 7 лет назад

Just rewatched the vid and have no idea why I used this method to make them...can't say they are hugely popular in Australia and I've really only made a handful of them but I usually make them using the same method as you which is probably more 'authentic' as well....I think this was the fifth cocktail of the day so I was probably on my way! Yeah, slapping is a good idea, definitely gets the aromas and oils happening! Let me know what you think if you give it a try - it does make the mint pretty prominent but without the little minute pieces that get stuck in your teeth =)

@jacobnorton4413 7 лет назад

Steve the Bartender Fifth cocktail of the day?? Hahaha man, you are alright! 😆 I'll let you know how mine turn out, and I agree with you with about the mint in the teeth...real pain in the ass.

Bourbon drinks are not supposed to be shaken

Mint julep is of course the offical cocktail of the kentucky derby.

Any recommendations on where to buy those mint julep cups? Would like to find the style you used.

@StevetheBartender_ 4 года назад

I couldn't find the exact ones that I used (Uber Bar Tool branded)... but I really like these ones: amzn.to/36oh0b9

@jonathanc.9247 3 года назад

Press the mint into the ice chub helps release the ethanol

@StevetheBartender_ 3 года назад

Release the ethanol??

@RR_DM 7 месяцев назад

smash the mint with your palm to release the flavour and aroma

@SheldonCooperL 6 лет назад

I don't have angostura, what I can use instead!? Thanks!

@StevetheBartender_ 6 лет назад

Did you have any other bitters in hand? If you’re stuck, I guess a twist of orange peel would add some bitter notes but wouldn’t be an exact replacement...

@marblemadness8870 3 года назад

Pastors are not supposed to be drinking, you alky.

Nope but I just picked up a bottle of Makers cask strength (55%).

@ScottKorin 2 года назад

@cooperbrain 4 года назад

The bitterness of the mint comes from over muddling the mint.

@andrewmeilinger6203 Год назад

Yup. Light pressure is good though
