Pegasus

Ingredients

• 4 slices fresh peach (see Cook's Note)
• 12 fresh mint leaves, plus 2 sprigs for garnish
• 1 ounce fresh lemon juice
• 4 ounces bourbon
• Roughly cracked or small ice cubes
• Crushed ice
• 2 dashes bitters

Equipment

• 2 Highball or Collins glasses

Instructions

1. In a mixing glass, muddle the peaches, mint leaves, and lemon juice until the peaches are well broken down. Add 1 ounce of ginger syrup and the bourbon and fill halfway with ice. Using a long-handled spoon, stir until well chilled, about 30 seconds. Completely fill two highball glasses with crushed ice. Strain and divide the mixture evenly between the two glasses. Top with a dash of bitters and garnish with a mint sprig. Serve at once.
