mint julep that is really minty and doesn't really taste like alcohol.?

Question

Disneyland used to make them virgin, but now they have some dumb "mint julep" soda that is carbonated and tastes just odd. I don't mind if it has alcohol in it, as long as it isn't overpowering.

Answer 1

Disney's "mint julep" is just a mild spearmint soda.

Traditional mint juleps are spearmint leaves, sugar or simple syrup, whiskey, ice and soda water. You can tweak on the proportions to suit your taste.

A mojito is the same thing with rum instead of whiskey. Using light rum reduces the "booze taste" and makes it taste more like the Disney version with a kick.

Answer 2

Just add enough whiskey to suit yourself. A little club soda is a nice addition, too.

Answer 3

Have you tried mojito? This cuban classic is the most drinked julep in the world. The Original receipt: 1/2 lime, few leaves of mint, sugar syrup - You squeeze the together, you add 4 cl Bacardi, fill up your glass, with crushed ice (if you can`t get, the ice cubes will do too) and fill up your glass with soda, and stir it gently. But I suggest instead of syrup to use brown sugar. The caipirinha with some leaves of mint is nice as well. 3/4 of a lime, mint leaves, custard sugar, squeeze them, add 4cl cachaca, and icecubes, and shake it well. The ice gonna get melted, so it`s not strong at all.
