This Mint Julep is alcohol free and tastes refreshing, this green drink copycat is spot on!

Questions & Reviews

Amberly says:

Is mint concentrate the same as mint extract? Thanks!

Cyd says:

If your recipe calls for mint or peppermint extract, but you have none on hand, you can sub in mint oil. Both are flavored by the leaves of the peppermint plant. The oil is more concentrated than the typical extract, so you need to use a lot less to flavor your recipe. Divide the amount of peppermint extract called for in the recipe by four. If your recipes read "1 teaspoon peppermint extract," you'll need 1/4 teaspoon oil at the most. Hope this helps.

Steffanie says:

Just curious why use soda water if you just boil it? It doesn't keep its carbonation. Would regular water not give the same results?

Cyd says:

Hi Steffanie, We have just made this recipe as directed and it has turned out amazing! Not sure how regular water would work.

Nikole Baak says:

Where do I find lime juice concentrate in the grocery store?

Cyd says:

At our local Kroger store the lemon and lime juice is on the same aisle as the flavored juices. Hope this helps.
