Have You Tried A Hennessy Mint Julep?
As we get closer the Kentucky Derby people start wanting to make Mint Juleps. Have you ever tried one with Hennessy? A uniquely American cocktail made of mint, sugar, bourbon and ice, the Mint Julep has been the official cocktail of the Kentucky Derby since 1938. But before the Civil War made foreign products like Cognac hard to come by in the South, Mint Juleps were in fact made with the French spirit.
So why not get back to this classic cocktail’s roots with a French twist on an American tradition, made with Hennessy V.S.O.P Privilège? The world’s first and favorite V.S.O.P Cognac blends over 60 eaux-de-vie to achieve perfect harmony – a natural balance of strength and smoothness with a long-lasting finish.
