Team ice cubes all the way! They melt slower, keeping your mint julep perfectly chilled without diluting the flavor too quickly.
It's all about savoring every sip!

When it comes to mint juleps, the debate between using crushed ice or ice cubes is a matter of both tradition and preference. My Team Names advocates argue that crushed ice is essential for the authentic mint julep experience, as it chills the drink quickly, creating a refreshing and smooth beverage that is perfect for hot weather.
