Notes & Review
Maple syrup + whiskey is delicious so we like this simple cocktail. Death & Co is not a fan of muddling mint in drinks so they abstain from that in all their juleps. Unless your mint is fragrant beyond belief though, you'll be sipping whiskey and sugar water with a light waft of mint before each sip.
