2 teaspoons maple syrup, or to taste
2 ounces bourbon
Crushed ice

Langkah-langkah

Place the mint leaves in the bottom of a sturdy old-fashioned or rocks glass. Muddle them until the leaves are dark, fragrant and broken down, about 30 seconds.
Add the maple syrup and bourbon. Fill the glass with crushed ice and stir the drink for a few seconds.
To garnish, gently clap the mint sprig in between your palms (this releases the fragrant mint oils). Place it in your glass and serve immediately.
