Today we’re celebrating this glorious summer weather by making an Apricot Julep. This one we’re doing from one of my favorite bartenders Tony Abu-Ganim who is now located in Las Vegas, Nevada. Mint Juleps are a summer staple, and this season really just doesn’t feel right without them, so I try and bring you some great variation every year, sometimes two.
Here’s links to the tools I use in this episode:
