Finally, the following drink recipes for you are from Bulleit Bourbon.....

The BLT

Ingredients:
1 1/3 oz. Bulleit Bourbon
Lemon wedge
Tonic

Directions:
Serve over ice in a rocks glass.  Garnish with a generous wedge of lemon.

The Bulleit Mint Julep

15 oz. Bulleit Bourbon
30-40 fresh mint leaves
Simple Syrup solution (1 cup sugar and 1 cup water)

Preparation:

Wash mint leaves, pat dry and put them in a small mixing bowl.  Cover with 3 oz. of Bulleit Bourbon and let soak for 15 minutes.

Remove mint, then place in a clean cotton cloth and wring over bowl, bruising the leaves.  Dip back into bourbon and wring again.  Repeat several times to create mint extract.  Set extract aside for one hour.  You can also put the leaves back in the extract for a more concentrated mint flavor.

Combine mint extract (leaves included, if preferred) with simple syrup in a covered glass container or jar and refrigerate overnight.

Fill julep cups with crushed or shaved ice and insert a fresh mint sprig.  Add 1 oz. of Bulleit Bourbon to each cup.  Add marinated julep mixture to taste.

Now, sit back and enjoy!
