AdInstructions
Start by crushing some mint leaves along with the rose syrup at the base of your julep cup.
Next, pack half of the cup with crushed ice.
Then, carefully pour in the bourbon whiskey followed by a single drop of saline solution.
Stir everything together vigorously until the exterior of the cup becomes icy cold to touch.
Top off the drink with additional crushed ice to create a layered effect that rises above the rim.
Finally, adorn your cocktail with a sprig of mint and a couple of rose petals for a decorative finish.
