There are several secrets to the classic Mint Julep that you need to know: First, muddle the mint gently, don’t rip it to shreds. Second, cracked (or even shaved) ice is a must – cubes are a no-no. Finally, if you use sugar cubes, be sure to take the time to meld them thoroughly with the mint before adding the bourbon – you want the sugar fully dissolved!
