Embrace the fresh, vibrant flavors of spring with the Spring Fling Rhubarb Mint Julep. This innovative cocktail combines the tartness of rhubarb with the refreshing coolness of mint, complemented by the smoothness of bourbon, to create a drink that's as lively and rejuvenating as the season itself. Its rosy hue and fragrant aroma make it a perfect pick-me-up for spring afternoons and evenings. Ingredients: - 2 oz bourbon - 1 oz rhubarb syrup (homemade or store-bought) - 10 fresh mint leaves, plus a sprig for garnish - 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice - Sparkling water to top - Ice cubes - Thin rhubarb ribbon or slice for garnish (optional) Rhubarb Syrup: - 1 cup chopped rhubarb - 1 cup water - 1 cup sugar To make the rhubarb syrup, combine rhubarb, water, and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain the mixture, discarding the solids, and let the syrup cool before using. Cocktail Preparation: 1. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the mint leaves gently with the rhubarb syrup and lemon juice to release their flavors. 2. Add bourbon and fill the shaker with ice. 3. Shake well until the mixture is chilled. 4. Double strain into an ice-filled highball glass or a classic julep cup. 5. Top with a splash of sparkling water. 6. Garnish with a mint sprig and a rhubarb ribbon for an extra touch of spring. Serve and enjoy the refreshing burst of spring with each sip of your Spring Fling Rhubarb Mint Julep.
