Mint Julep
2 cups sugar
2 cups water
Sprigs of fresh mint
Crushed ice (must be crushed!)
Bourbon
Silver Julep Cups
Make a simple syrup by boiling sugar and water together for five minutes. Cool and place in a covered container with six or eight sprigs of fresh mint, then refrigerate overnight. Make one julep at a time by filling a julep cup with crushed ice, adding one tablespoon mint syrup and two ounces of Bourbon. Stir rapidly with a spoon to frost the outside of the cup. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint.

WAY too much work..........I'd be done with my first margarita by the time you had the sugar and water mixed.
