2010-01-26 21:52 Spicy, sweet, piquant.............and, of course, minty fresh… Many Kentuckyians would be lost without the venerable Mint Julep on the first Saturday in May. Mint Julep became Churchill Down's signature drink in 1938 when they started to serve the drink in souvenir glasses for 75 cents a drink. Today Kentucky Derby serves more than 80,000 juleps over the two-day event. Mint Julep first appeared in print in 1803 described as a "dram of spirituous liquor that has mint in it, taken by Virginians in the morning." Some historians say Mint Julep was born in the early 1700s somewhere in east coast. First Mint Juleps weren't perhaps mixed with Bourbon, rather rye whiskey or rum or other available spirits.
