For those of you who don't know, this is a bourbon-based cocktail.
Since neither Soph nor I like whiskey, we did not have high hopes for this recipe, but we persevered and made it in the spirit of the challenge. Being British, we usually only have Scotch whiskey in the house but, luckily, on a recent visit to New York, I bought my brother-in-law a bottle of Knob Creek Kuntucky Straight Bourbon, so we cracked that open (or rather peeled back the wax seal).
Basically, the cocktail is a sugar-mint syrup mixed with bourbon and poured over ice, and it looked pretty impressive (although we used enthusiastically large glasses).
After having tried it, Soph and I can now say that we're also not fans of bourbon - even if it's doused with a healthy amount of sugar and mint. It all worked out well enough though - more for Dave.
