Watermelon Mint Julep

Refreshing and lightly sweet with a watermelon punch. This cocktail has summer written all over it but maintains balance from becoming overly sweet thanks to the julep bitters, which lend an herbal minty depth and a clean finish. Using a Bottled in Bond bourbon allows the bourbon flavors to still shine through the fruity nature of this drink. This is the perfect way to finish off the left over watermelon from your summer barbecues this season.

6-8 chunks Fresh Watermelon
