Fashionable food and drink for your Kentucky Derby Party

Email thisPosted Apr 18th 2008 at 10:02AM by Kristen Seymour

A stylish party is one part fabulous atmosphere, one part gorgeous guests, and one part fashionable food and drink -- a Kentucky Derby party is no exception.

First things first -- you can't celebrate the Derby without serving up mint juleps. This is the traditional drink of the Kentucky Derby, made of sugar, water, mint, and bourbon (or variations thereof). Ideally, they should be served in a chilled, silver cup (which are fun gifts for your guests to take home).

Holy water? Not quite

First, we had designer ice cubes. Today, we have Style.com's item of the week -- Santa Maria Novella Water, from the luxurious producer of fragrances, soaps, and herbal remedies.

This "instant cure" water dates back to the 17th century when women dressed in ridiculously too tight corsets would faint -- and this "potion" would come to the rescue. Apparently, this tiny bottle can also help ease motion sickness and improve digestion.

$13 for such a small bottle of what could potentially be straight out of the tap? Wait -- what if you put designer ice cubes into a glass of Santa Maria Novella Water?

This somehow reminds me of the $1000 mint julep served at the Kentucky Derby this year, equipped with ice straight from the Arctic.
