Come Party With Me: Kentucky Derby — Drinks
The mint julep — a refreshing mint whiskey cocktail — is the official drink of the Kentucky Derby. Naturally, one should offer guests the potent concoction at a watching party. This classic recipe features a mint-infused simple syrup so don't wait until the last minute to make it.
Happy Hour: Brandy Julep
The weather warmed up this weekend, and a wonderfully refreshing drink was definitely a must. Looking for inspiration, I flipped through the latest issue of Imbibe magazine and came across a Brandy Julep. With a Kentucky Derby Party just around the corner, I knew I had found my drink.

Ray's One Mint Julep
The date is December 27, 1960 and somewhere in the ABC Paramount studios, Ray Charles is recording what will become a number one hit. The song is called "One Mint Julep," a jazzy number that gets its name from a cocktail distinctive to the south. To celebrate this recording I say let's make ourselves a drink and have a toast.

Celebrate 52 Years of Disneyland
Disneyland turns 52 today and in celebration, I thought I'd share with you my favorite Disneyland recipe. I've only been once, but I definitely recall the crisp coolness of their non-alcoholic mint juleps. I'm pretty sure they're only available at the Mint Julep Bar in the French Quarter area (near the French Market facing the train station - stand near the New Orleans bathrooms and you'll be across from it), but if you can't make it there, treat yourself to one at home.
