Mint Julep by Jeff

In need of a mint julep but lacking fresh mint, Jeff created this concoction to mimic the classic.  It works very well.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 tsp simple syrup
4 strong dashes mint bitters
3 1/2 oz bourbon (“1792” works well)
1 tsp Bada Bing cherry juice
1 Bada Bing cherry

Steps:
Add simple syrup and mint bitters to old-fashioned glass and stir vigorously. Add bourbon and cherry juice and stir to mix. Add a goodly amount of ice and stir until chilled. Add the cherry and start sipping.
