Many of you have tried our inexplicably alluring Cre, but have you tried it in a bourbon cocktail? We think this riff on the classic Mint Julep is the perfect way to enjoy this bright green beauty.

Here’s what you need:

crejulep

1 sugar cube

5 mint leaves, plus more for garnish

1/2 oz Cre

2 oz bourbon

crejulep-2

Add a sugar cube and mint leaves to a mixing glass.

crejulep-3

Measure 3/4 oz Cre.

crejulep-4

Add to glass.

crejulep-5

Muddle by gently pressing and twisting to dissolve the sugar and release the oils of the mint.

crejulep-6

Measure 2 oz bourbon.

crejulep-7

Add to glass. Stir.

crejulep-8

Strain over crushed ice.

crejulep-9

Add extra crushed ice on top and garnish with mint.

crejulep-10

Cre Julep.

Cheers!
