St. Regis Mint Julep

Ingredients

• 1 tsp Water (omit)
• 1 tsp Sugar (1/4 oz simple syrup)
• 0.25 oz Grenadine
• 12 Leaf mint
• 0.5 Pony rum (1/4 oz smith & cross + 1/4 oz appleton signature)
• 1 jigger Rye (1 1/2 oz sazerac)

Instructions

Muddle the mint leaves in the bottom of a julep cup or double old fashioned glass. Dissolve the sugar in water (use simple syrup instead) and add the rest of the ingredients (I also removed the muddled mint leaves). Fill with crushed ice and garnish with mint sprigs.
