Description: The Basil Breeze Gin Fizz is a sublime combination of fresh, aromatic basil, the crispness of gin, and the sweetness of honey, all balanced with a spark of lemon. This cocktail embodies the essence of a refreshing garden breeze, making it perfect for a summer afternoon or a sophisticated soiree. Without the use of egg whites, it retains a crisp, clean profile while still offering a delightful frothiness from the shaken ingredients. Ingredients: - 2 ounces gin (preferably a botanical variety) - 3/4 ounce fresh lemon juice - 1/2 ounce honey syrup (equal parts honey and water, heated until honey dissolves, then cooled) - 4-5 fresh basil leaves, plus more for garnish - Club soda, to top - Ice Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the basil leaves gently with the lemon juice and honey syrup to release the basil's oils and flavor. 2. Add the gin and a handful of ice to the shaker. 3. Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled. 4. Double strain into a highball glass filled with ice, to remove the basil bits and ensure a smooth texture. 5. Top with a splash of club soda for a refreshing fizz. 6. Garnish with a fresh basil leaf or a lemon wheel. Glass: - Serve in a highball glass. The Basil Breeze Gin Fizz combines the herbal freshness of basil with the complexity of gin and the tangy sweetness of lemon and honey, creating a perfectly balanced cocktail that's both refreshing and enticing.
