Basil Julep (Pamela Wiznitzer)

Gently muddle the basil leaves at the bottom of a julep cup to release their aromatic oils.

Add the bourbon and peach liqueur to the cup.

Fill the cup with crushed ice, packing it tightly to chill the mixture.

Stir briefly to combine the ingredients and ensure the julep cup frosts on the outside.

Garnish with fresh basil leaves and slices of ripe peach for a vibrant presentation.
