Our favorite Kentucky Derby cocktails

Every year on the first Saturday in May, people go all out for “the most exciting two minutes in sports” — the Kentucky Derby. We’re talking dapper outfits and floppy oversized hats, fat cigars, roses and high-stakes gambling. Of course, alcohol is a large part of these celebrations, and while you won’t be shamed for drinking beer, this day is all about craft cocktails. From the classic mint julep and beyond, there’s no horsing around with these liquid libations. (This story originally appeared on The Daily Meal.)
