Kentucky Derby Mint Julep

prbyrachelt

It’s not always easy being a Texas girl living in Kentucky… but Springtime in the Bluegrass is beautiful!  And with the beginning of May, we get one of Kentucky’s most famous events, the Kentucky Derby.  Check out this video for a great, easy party drink- the Kentucky Derby Mint Julep.

Celebrating your love of the ponies and all things Bluegrass is really easy.  All you will need is a glass (preferably a silver julep cup), fresh mint, simple syrup, crushed ice, and your favorite fine Kentucky Bourbon.  Watch the video for details on mixing and serving this Derby favorite.

On a side note- my husband was very excited to come home to some freshly made mint juleps!  As a Kentucky native and lover of bourbon, he was impressed by how well this simple recipe turned out.  Keep this one basic.  Lots of people put effort into making their mint julep recipe unique and usually end up ruining it.  Just mix this one up, sit back, relax, and sip in the spring weather!

Christmas Party Cocktails

What goes well with adult themed parties?  Adult themed drinks!  And there is no better time than the holidays to spice up a party with a few themed recipes that will make your Christmas one to remember.  I’ve selected a few of my favorites to help you keep your Holiday Pure Romance Party or Christmas with the family “merry and bright!”

This “Santa Baby” cocktail uses cherry and orange flavors with a little (or a lot) of brandy to keep you sane and a little less sober when your crazy aunt wearing a holly wreath around her neck starts pinching your cheeks and telling you about how cute you were when you were little.

The “Christmas Snowball” is perfect to garnish with a candy cane (and looks a bit like a milkshake.)  It utilizes Irish cream, raspberry flavored liqueur, and grenadine to help you power your way through a National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation marathon.  In the words of the great Clark Griswold- “Nobody’s walking out on this fun, old-fashioned, family Christmas.  No, no.  We are all in this together!”

Baby, it’s cold outside!  Put on a few extra layers with this Layered Christmas Jello Shots Cocktail.  It takes a little more work and skill, but jello shots are a perfect match for any Holiday Pure Romance party!  To quote the Grinch- “Maybe Christmas doesn’t come from a store.  Maybe, Christmas, perhaps… means a little bit more.”  I like to think that he meant adding a bit more vodka to the recipe, but you can make your own call on this one.
