History of the Mint Julep<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mint Juleps have been a staple at the Kentucky Derby all the way back to 1875. Fresh mint was grown on the grounds and quickly became the beverage of choice on race day and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its estimated that over 120,000 mint juleps are served over the two day event at Churchill downs (pre covid) and remains the official drink of the Kentucky Derby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditionally Woodford Reserve is the Official Bourbon of the Kentucky Derby but I personally enjoy Maker's Mark. Use The Bourbon You Like Best I Say!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
