Mint Juleps, Fancy Hats, and Fast Horses: It’s Derby Season, Y’all ;) 🐎🍹
Ah, the Kentucky Derby—a glorious mash-up of southern charm, outrageous hats, beautiful horses, and (let’s be honest) a perfectly good excuse to drink before noon. And at the heart of it all? The iconic Mint Julep.
Cool, crisp, and just the right amount of boozy, the Mint Julep has been the official drink of the Derby for nearly a century. It’s basically spring in a glass—minty, refreshing, and dressed to impress, just like the crowd at Churchill Downs.
But here’s the thing: muddling mint leaves is a pain. It’s messy, inconsistent, and honestly, who has time for that when there are tiny horses on TV and big bets to lose? That’s why we’re thrilled to say: Cheeky Mint Syrup is BACK in stock—for a limited time only! Made ONLY with real ingredients - fresh mint leaves, cane sugar, and water, it’s the easiest, stress-free way to julep like a pro. Just pour, stir, and sip like you're trackside in Kentucky.
Classic Mint Julep Recipe (No Muddling, No Problem)
You’ll Need:
