How I Celebrated

For our alcohol free version, we got some lemonade, some mint sprigs and some ice. You gotta chill your glass in the freezer, add some ice cubes, put some brewed mint tea with lemonade and add a mint sprig. Refreshing. Weird, but refreshing.

History

 Punchbowl
Mint Julep is not anything I have had or heard of, but that word Julep is pretty cool.  It's almost like tulip. A minty refreshing drink sounds like a great idea for hot summers.

Merchandise

Hmm I'll have to look into some of those lotions.
