Mint Julep
The mint julep is a traditional Southern U.S. cocktail featuring bourbon, fresh mint, and sugar syrup, served over crushed ice in a chilled pewter or silver cup. This sweetened alcoholic beverage derives its signature freshness from muddling mint leaves with sugar to release aromatic oils, creating a balance between bourbon's warmth and the herb's cooling notes. While refreshing, its calorie content comes primarily from alcohol and added sugars, making portion awareness key for nutritional tracking.
