In a sturdy glass or silver julep cup, gently muddle the mint leaves, sugar, and water together. Be careful not to over-muddle, as this can make the mint bitter.
Add the bourbon to the glass.
Fill the glass completely with crushed ice.
Stir well until the glass is frosted on the outside.
Garnish with a fresh mint sprig. You can lightly slap the mint sprig against your hand to release its aroma before placing it in the drink.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
