Zubereitung von Emeril's Mint Julep
- Combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of granulated sugar in a large, non-reactive saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Add 1 cup of packed fresh mint leaves and bring the mixture to a rolling boil.
- Remove from the heat, cover, and let steep for 30 minutes to infuse the mint flavor.
- Strain the mint syrup through a fine-mesh sieve lined with several layers of cheesecloth. Allow the syrup to cool completely.
- In a sterilized bottle, combine the cooled mint syrup with 1 cup of bourbon. Gently swirl to mix.
- Seal the bottle tightly and let it rest in a cool, dark place for at least one month to allow the flavors to mature. The longer it rests, the better it tastes!
- To serve, fill a chilled julep cup or collins glass with crushed ice. Pour in the mint julep mixture.
- Garnish with a fresh sprig of mint and enjoy!
