Deliciously tart and minty, though I feel that adding triple sec still as per margarita specs might bolster the flavor in a more meaningful way. Definitely worth trying again!

We liked this cocktail but the next time I would cut the Julep part and serve it without ice. The dilution by the ice is really watering the cocktail down.
