Busch's Grove: Mint Julep Busch's Grove was an unpretentious white frame roadhouse on Clayton Road at Price, in the city of Ladue. For years the name epitomized genteel, gracious dining in St. Louis. The restaurant was known for its screened cottages, as well as the steaks coming from its grill and the mint juleps served over its bar.

Preparation Place sugar in a 12-ounce glass. Add enough water to melt sugar. Add handful of mint leaves and crush with muddler. Pack shaved ice into glass and pour in bourbon. Mix this in an up-and-down motion to thoroughly mix ingredients with ice. Repack with more ice and top off with liqueur of your choice. Garnish with sprig of mint, orange slice and a cherry with stem. Top with a small parasol (!), if you have one. Copyright © 2018 LostDishes.com |
