The Barrel Aged Mint Julep

The Barrel Aged Mint Julep

The Mint Julep has been charming palates since the 1700s, famously served in silver cups and synonymous with the Kentucky Derby. Traditionally built around bourbon, the drink’s appeal lies in its simplicity — spirit, sugar, mint, and ice — yet every element must sing in harmony.

At Conniption Gin, we reimagine this Southern classic through our own modern lens. By replacing whiskey with our Conniption Barrel Aged Gin, we keep the soul of the Julep intact while layering in the botanical warmth and soft spice that make our gin so distinct. The result? A cocktail that honors tradition while redefining indulgence. It's bright, balanced, and beautifully unexpected.
