Taking the classic Mint Julep in a savory direction, this combination of sage, orange, and Belle Meade Bourbon is meant to be enjoyed on a hot summer’s day. Juleps have long been a symbol of Southern Summer decadence and whether it's Derby season or not they make the perfect potent potable to enjoy on the lawn, patio, or pavilion, regardless of your latitude. Swizzle up a Sage Advice by the poolside or invite some friends over for an alternative to the traditional Derby cocktail.
