Instructions

Description: The Strawberry Basil Bliss is a refreshing and sophisticated cocktail that combines the sweet and tangy flavors of strawberries with the aromatic freshness of basil. This drink is perfect for warm evenings or any occasion that calls for a delightful and visually appealing beverage. The absence of elderflower liqueur and prosecco ensures that the strawberry and basil are the stars of the show, with a subtle hint of citrus and a bubbly finish provided by the sparkling lemonade. Ingredients: - 2 oz Gin - 1 oz Fresh lemon juice - 1 oz Strawberry purée (fresh strawberries blended until smooth) - 0.5 oz Simple syrup (adjust to taste) - 3-4 Fresh basil leaves - 2 oz Sparkling lemonade (can replace with non-alcoholic sparkling lemonade for a lighter version) - Ice cubes - Fresh strawberry slice for garnish - Basil sprig for garnish Glass: - Highball or Collins glass Instructions: 1. In a shaker, muddle the fresh basil leaves with the lemon juice and simple syrup to release the basil's aromatic oils. 2. Add the strawberry purée and gin to the shaker. 3. Fill the shaker with ice cubes and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients thoroughly. 4. Strain the mixture into a highball or Collins glass filled with ice, ensuring the finer pieces of basil are left behind. 5. Top up the glass with sparkling lemonade to add a refreshing fizz. 6. Gently stir to integrate the sparkling lemonade with the rest of the drink. 7. Garnish with a fresh strawberry slice on the rim and a sprig of basil. 8. Serve immediately and enjoy the burst of flavors from the Strawberry Basil Bliss.
