Happy Derby Day!
Doesn't take much to
convince me to have a party and 2 min of sport plus a mint julep is
enough to count me in. Today, of course, is the 136 running of the
Kentucky Derby
I dusted off some of my old horse show ribbons for décor and my
wonderful husband picked up some red roses to mark the
occasion.
I found some images of
old cirgar cards on
flcker (where else) and used them to make drink stirrers and
some betting cards for the party goers.
Just add a fancy hat
and presto! It's party time.
Oh, and here is the
recipe for the official Mint Julep of the
Derby:
* 2 fluid ounces Early
Times® Kentucky Whisky
* 1 tablespoon simple
syrup
* Mint
sprigs
*
Crushed ice
