Mint Simple Syrup

I hear there’s some sort of 🐎 race tomorrow and a certain cocktail *cough* mint julep *cough* that requires mint syrup. Let me show you how easy that is to make.

Stay tuned later today so I can show you how to make the easiest julep you’ve ever made. Just in time for Derby Day!

“A lighter rendition of the classic, the Alive and Well is more of an “orange” Negroni. aromatic, floral, herbaceous, and slightly fruity backed with Campari’s signature bitterness; it’s a fun, late-summer sipper.”

Don’t forget you can grab this cocktail at @beautiful_south__ this week! Cheers y’all!

Charreada

¡Happy #CincoDeMayo, mis amigos!

I’m happy to bring you one of the most unique recipes from the Copper Bar the @patron Hacienda last week. We liked it so much, both @highproofpreacher and I posted about it without even coordinating haha Thanks to our dude @gingerbartender for providing the recipe!

A little background: The Charreada is a rodeo-like tradition dating back to the arrival of Spanish horsemanship to Mexico in the 16th century. Once a competition between Haciendas, it is now performed by teams of professional charros and is an important touchstone of Mexican culture. So there’s your fun fact for the day - now get out there and enjoy this day respectfully and responsibly, salud!
