This Orange Mint Julep is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred it with less sugar.

This Orange Mint Julep is a waste of time. It's too sweet, too minty, and not boozy enough.

This Orange Mint Julep is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. I wouldn't make it again.

I've tried this Orange Mint Julep a few times, and I've always found it to be a bit bland. I think it needs more flavor.
