FROZEN LEMONADE JULEP

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the honey, lemon juice and water and stir to dissolve. Bring to a simmer and remove from the heat. Set aside to cool slightly (or put it into a shallow pan), then cool completely in the freezer, 30 minutes to 1 hour (but you can leave it longer because it's ok if it freezes).
• When the syrup is cold, add 1 cup to a blender with 12 ounces (1 1/2 cups) Bourbon and 1 bunch mint. Add 2 to 4 cups of ice, depending on how strong and thick you want the slushies. Blend until the mixture is thick and frozen like a smoothie.
• Divide among 8 small glasses (or 4 tall) and garnish with lemon slices and a sprig of mint. Repeat the process in 3 more batches with remaining ingredients.

FROZEN MINT JULEP

Steps:

• Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan and simmer until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and add the mint leaves. Allow to steep until cooled. Once cooled, strain out the leaves.
• Combine half of the mint syrup, 4 cups ice, and 1 cup bourbon in a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour into a pitcher. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Rub the rims of julep cups, if available, or wide-mouthed, long-stemmed glasses with orange slices and dip the rims in sugar, then fill with the frozen mint juleps. Garnish each with an orange slice and mint sprig and serve immediately.
