Mint Julep Day - a Southern Classic

National Mint Julep Day is celebrated every year on May 30th. This southern classic is the traditional drink of The Kentucky Derby where almost 120,000 are served in two days. The classic drink is made with mint leaf, bourbon, sugar and water. Grab a tall cool drink and set yourself down in the shade and imbibe. What a nice way to spend an afternoon or evening on the porch.
