The 1826 Mint Julep, crafted with Maker's Mark bourbon, offers a bright and refreshing take on this classic American cocktail, now easily enjoyed at home. Inspired by the rich history of the London docks in 1826, when Thomas Lowndes established his spirits business, the brand brings together premium ingredients and global influences to create exceptional cocktail experiences. Originally trading in Jamaican Rum and Dutch Geneva Gin, Lowndes’ legacy continues with 1826’s commitment to quality. Pour the mint julep into a julep cup or glass over crushed ice. Gently stir, add more crushed ice, and garnish with a sprig of mint to release its aroma. Serve with two short straws for a perfect finish.
