Wonderful!!! I was always taught to add just a splash of water to the drink, just to kickstart the dilution, meld the flavors together, and add a bit more volume to the drink, but besides that, a stellar mint julep!!! Also, this is the first time I have encountered your channel and, if your other videos are anything like this video, I know I’ll love it😉 You dress nice, you’re engaging, and each drink comes with a history lesson. Exactly my kind of channel…for this particular subject, at least😂

A great variation is to use pecan orgeat in place of the simple syrup. My fave on Derby Day.
