Mint Juleps are often referred to as the official drink of the Kentucky Derby, but this traditional southern drink is a staple for warm weather. 

Bulleit Mint Julep
 
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 cup sprigs of mint
3 ounces Bulleit bourbon
1 sprig of mint for garnish
 
Bring the sugar and water to a boil in a saucepan and boil gently for 5 minutes; stir occasionally. Pour over the mint in a heatproof pitcher or bowl, gently crushing the mint with the back of a spoon. Chill, covered, for 8 to 10 hours. Strain, discarding the mint. You may store the syrup in the refrigerator for several weeks, preparing individual juleps as desired. For each serving, fill a barrel beaker or julep cup with crushed ice. Add 2 tablespoons of the mint syrup and the bourbon and stir gently until the cup is frosted. Garnish with 1 sprig of mint and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Yields 1 serving
