The mint julep was good, but I think it would have been better if I had used a different type of bourbon.

I found that this recipe made too much mint julep for just two people. I would recommend halving the recipe if you're only making it for a small group.

This mint julep is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less simple syrup next time.

I'm not a big fan of bourbon, but I still enjoyed this mint julep. The mint and simple syrup really balance out the flavor of the bourbon.
