Description: A refreshing and savory mocktail that brings the briny flavors of green olives to a garden-fresh mix. This non-alcoholic spritzer is perfect for those who enjoy a twist of umami with their refreshments. Garnished with fresh herbs and olive skewers, it's as much a feast for the eyes as for the palate. Ingredients: - 4 large green olives, pitted plus more for garnish - 2 fresh basil leaves - 1 sprig of rosemary - 1 small sprig of thyme - 1/2 teaspoon of white balsamic vinegar - 1 tablespoon of simple syrup - 1 tablespoon of lemon juice - Ice cubes - 4 ounces of tonic water or club soda - A pinch of freshly ground black pepper - Lemon peel twist, for garnish Glass: - Highball glass Instructions: 1. In a cocktail shaker, muddle the green olives with the basil, rosemary, and thyme, releasing the herbs' flavors. 2. Add the white balsamic vinegar, simple syrup, and lemon juice to the shaker. 3. Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients thoroughly. 4. Strain the mixture into a highball glass filled with fresh ice, leaving the muddled herbs and olives behind. 5. Top the drink with tonic water or club soda, depending on your preference for bitterness or neutrality. 6. Stir gently to combine and top with a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. 7. Garnish with a skewer of green olives, a lemon peel twist, and a small sprig of rosemary or thyme. 8. Serve immediately, inviting your guests to enjoy a sophisticated, savory mocktail experience.
