1,000 Dollar Mint Juleps: Bourbon From Kentucky, Mint From Morroco, Ice From The Arctic, and Horse Steroids From Barry Bonds


Sorry, I couldn't resist the Barry Bonds joke.

So this year at the Kentucky Derby rich white people in nice hats and dresses can buy Mint Juleps for 1,000 bucks a pop.

Besides all the ingredients coming from the finest stock (actually I didn't know Morocco was the hub of mint), it will be served in a golden cup.

The proceeds, apparently, go to a charity for retired horses.

Wow.

It's like some dates I've had, a fortune in alcohol and 2 minutes of excitement.
