Sick of boring ole mint juleps? This one is for you.

If you haven’t had Chartreuse vegetal elixir before, you need to find a bottle. It has all the herbaciousness of Chartreuse without the sweetness. It works really well in a julep and really complements the mint and bourbon, y’all gotta try it out.

Big thanks to @jameswitty for hooking me up with my first bottle! 🙏🏽

• ¾ oz | 22.5 ml Simple Syrup

• Jigger (Japanese Style)

• Barspoon

• Julep Strainer

• Glassware

instructions:

Add bourbon, simple syrup, chartreuse vegetal and mint leaves to a julep glass. Muddle gently. Fill half way with crushed or pebble ice and stir vigorously. Top with more crushed/pebble ice (think snow cone here). Garnish with a mint sprig and a julep spoon.
