FAQ's
What type of bourbon is best for The New England Julep?
For The New England Julep, a medium-bodied bourbon with a balanced sweetness and oaky undertones works best to complement the refreshing nature of the mint and the depth added by the lager.
Is there a specific way to serve The New England Julep to enhance its flavors?
Yes, serving The New England Julep in a chilled pint glass helps to keep the cocktail cold and refreshing. Additionally, lightly bruising the mint leaves before adding them can release their essential oils, enhancing the drink's aroma and flavor.
Why is The New England Julep stirred and not shaken?

How does the alcohol content of The New England Julep compare to other classic juleps?
The New England Julep, with an alcohol content of 7%, is relatively lower in alcohol compared to traditional juleps, which can range from 10% to 20% alcohol by volume. This makes it a lighter, more sessionable option suitable for longer sipping occasions.
