That I am a Southerner, and I have never had a Mint Julep.

Am I missing out on anything?

I'll put it like this: They'll make a man outta you...if you want to be one that damned bad.

4 fresh mint sprigs
2 1/2 oz bourbon whiskey
1 tsp powdered sugar
2 tsp water

I think that traditionally they're made out of Wild Turkey, but just remember that you're drinking straight boubon, so get something that gooes down smooth. Don't buy, say, Old Panther Piss brand.

Well, they didn't have Panther Piss, so I got a bottle of Tanqueray.

And they were out of fresh mint so I found some olives. And I'm substituting dry Vermouth for the water, and a tad of olive juice for the powdered sugar.

Shaken. Not stirred.

I prefer drinks that utilize bacon as a garnish.

You have to ask for Old Panther Piss, not just Panther Piss. Enjoy your martini.
