CQ Mint Julep Infused Cocktail Mixer Recipe
Ingredients
2 Pouches of CQ Lemon Puree
4 Hard Lemons - 21 slices
12 Fresh Mint Stalks
3 Gallons of Filtered Water
Cutting the Perfect Slice
USING A SLICER OR MANDOLIN ONLY, cut a test slice and compare it to the CQ Slicer Key/Wand’s handle. Adjust your slicer or mandolin until your slices match the thickness of the CQ Slicer Key/Wand. Once calibrated, slice up all ingredients as necessary.
Decorating the Beverage Dispenser
To set the insert in place, position a slice at each corner of the jar between the insert and the jar. Use the CQ Slicer Key/ Wand to push the slices all the way down. Decorate the rest of the jar using the CQ Slicer Key/Wand to position the remaining slices as shown in the picture.
Infusing the Cocktail Mixer
Using the CQ Slicer Key/Wand to measure the water level, fill the CQ Mixing Bucket with 3 gallons of filtered water add 2 pouches of CQ Puree and stir.
Next, place a metal strainer in the mixing bucket and muddle any remaining slices. This technique will ensure that no pieces end up blocking the spigot later.
Filling, Serving & Refreshing
Fill the beverage container to the top with ice cubes (about 10 lbs.) and add the CQ Infused Cocktail Mixer. To refresh, add equal amounts of ice & CQ Infused Cocktail Mixer. To serve: Fill a glass with ice. Add a shot of bourbon and fill it with the CQ Mixer. Stir & garnish.
