Growing up in the South, I've had one or two of these. If you're going to be watching the most exciting two minutes in sports this weekend(more on this to come), get soused accordingly. LeNell Smothers, Southerner and former proprietress of Red Hook's own Le Nell's(now, unfortunately closed), shares her recipe HERE.(Note: air travel just ain't what it used to be.)

Great photos....
I will be enjoying a Mint Julep tomorrow made with basil hayden's Bourbon...and cheering on my Derby pick: Dublin.
dude come over here and let's watch it at our place. I'll get the ingredients if you supply the pewter cups.
cant wait. We're having a Kentucky Derby-Q and making some of these. The best part is dressing up.
Since I read "The Great Gatsby" I've always wondered what a Mint Julep looked like and tasted like. Great Post.
-Cheers
