Most recipes recommend using fresh spearmint for a mint julep, however it really depends on the drinker's taste for mint. A stronger mint flavor would require peppermint or chocolate mint. Milder flavors would go more with apple mint or one of the others like pineapple mint. However I would NOT recommend using lemon mint unless you like the smell of citronella.
