About the Holiday

National Mint Julep Day celebrates this wonderfully refreshing great southern classic which is the traditional drink of the Kentucky Derby. This minty drink is also loved by people from Charleston, South Carolina, who like to claim the mint julep as their drink.

Mint Juleps are made with fresh mint, sugar, water, bourbon, and plenty of crushed or shaved ice, and traditionally were served in silver or pewter mugs. Celebrate this day by perfecting your Mint Julep recipe and drinking plenty of them outside while relaxing in a rocking chair.
