Just in time for the Kentucky Derby, Interstate's Joey Newman shows us how to make the famed mint julep. While a May tradition, the refreshing bourbon cocktail is ideal for sipping all summer long. Bonus: Don't miss Interstate's Derby party on May 1 with specials on mint juleps all day long ($5 buys you a julep with Early Time, while the $8 version features Woodford Reserve).

It takes guts—and finesse—to combine intense flavors like juniper-sweet gin and peppery-stong ginger for a well-balanced drink.

Watch staff at Jill's in the St. Julien Hotel & Spa blend smoked dates and vanilla gelato for an innovative and creamy treat. Bonus: Add one shot of bourbon for an adult twist on this nonalcoholic drink.
