Punch Suckling in Brain
Kentucky Derby this weekend. Its tradition for me to eat crawfish in the afternoon, then drink juleps until I fall asleep.
I am ashamed though, my Julep Recipe is more like a thrown together kind of thing. So I need help. Currently I do the following.
Fill my big pitcher 3/4 full of water.. Put that in pot to boil. Add Splenda until I get a saturated solution. (yes I know, but my wife drinks with me and she does not want sugar, I told her it's not a real Julep, and then she tells me that I am only in it for the bourbon, and she actually wants a little more julep so I have to deal with that, then as always I say OK honey and make my juleps with splenda....) Then a heaping tablespoon of sugar for that real sugar taste... Bring to boil and cool add to pitcher.
Add a couple packages of the publix mint just bruised a bit to pitcher. Put in Fridge.
Then when I get home from stuffing myself with crawfish. Bourbon, Ice, splash of julep mix.
There has to be something better.
