🄃 Refresh Your Summer: Keto Mint Julep (Cocktail & Mocktail Options!)

Mint Juleps are a timeless classic, especially when the weather turns warm. But if you’re watching your sugar intake or living the keto lifestyle, traditional sweetened versions are off the table—until now. Enter our Keto Mint Julep, made with fresh mint, a splash of bourbon, a kiss of fizz, and the magic of Keystone Pantry Allulose Syrup.

Whether you’re sipping on the porch, celebrating Derby Day, or just want a refreshing, sugar-free cocktail, this recipe hits the spot—with a mocktail variation that’s just as delicious!


šŸƒ Why Allulose?

Allulose is a rare sugar that tastes like traditional sugar but has virtually zero calories, zero net carbs, and no impact on blood sugar. That means you can enjoy a sweet, refreshing drink without the sugar crash. Our Keystone Pantry Allulose Syrup blends effortlessly into cold drinks, making it perfect for keto cocktails and mocktails.


🧊 Keto Mint Julep Recipe (Per Glass)

Ingredients:

  • 🌿 6–8 fresh mint sprigs

  • šŸ ½ oz Keystone Pantry Allulose Syrup

  • 🄃 2 oz bourbon

  • ✨ 1 oz ginger sparkling water (optional, for a refreshing twist)

  • ā„ļø Crushed ice

  • 🌿 Extra mint for garnish (optional)

  • 🄶 Chilled glass or julep cup


Instructions:

  1. Muddle the mint and allulose syrup together in the bottom of a chilled glass or julep cup. This releases the mint’s natural oils and infuses the syrup with a bright, herbal flavor.

  2. Add bourbon and give it a good stir to blend the flavors.

  3. Top with crushed ice and slowly add the sparkling ginger water (if using).

  4. Give it one final gentle stir and garnish with a fresh mint sprig.

  5. Sip and enjoy the sweet, crisp taste of summer—without the sugar!


šŸ¹ Make It a Mocktail!

Looking for a booze-free version that’s still bursting with flavor? We’ve got you covered.

Mocktail Modifications:

  • Replace bourbon with tonic water for a zesty, botanical base.

  • Swap regular allulose syrup for our Keystone Pantry Allulose Maple Syrup to add depth and a warm, maple-kissed flavor.

This mocktail is perfect for parties, baby showers, or anyone who wants to keep things light and refreshing without sacrificing taste.


✨ Final Thoughts

With just a handful of ingredients and a little muddling magic, you can enjoy the Southern charm of a Mint Julep—keto-style. The natural sweetness of Keystone Pantry Allulose Syrup makes this drink taste indulgent while keeping your macros on track.

So whether you’re mixing up a classic cocktail or serving a refined mocktail, this recipe is a refreshing reminder that you don’t have to give up sweetness to live well.

Cheers to summer in a glass!
