It’s another classic that tastes like a Benedictine- and brandy-based julep.

Reviews
Made these for the Kentucky Derby and they were a big hit!
I liked this. When I made my second one (he he he) I didn’t add the sugar but doubled the Benedictine as that was plenty sweet. I couldn’t taste much more of a difference. I don’t love sweet cocktails- so if you are making this for the first time use the sugar.
