Recipes Drinks Recipes Cocktail Recipes Bourbon Drinks Recipes Mint Julep Sweet Tea Be the first to rate & review! 1 Photo This mint julep sweet tea is a refreshing, cool-me-down drink made with bourbon and sweet tea. I muddle 4 mint leaves in each glass for extra mint flavor. It’s optional, but I think it really adds to the drink.
