Bourbon drink with mint (5)

I believe the answer is:

julep

(Other definitions for julep that I've seen before include "See 21 Down" , "Sweet drink, often medicated" , "Cocktail of bourbon, sugar and mint over crushed ice" , "Mint drink in America" , "(Minted) drink made with bourbon, sugar and crushed ice" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
