Strain the mixture into a highball glass filled with ice, ensuring that the strawberry bits and basil are evenly distributed. 5. Top up the cocktail with sparkling water, giving it a gentle stir to integrate. 6. Garnish with a fresh basil leaf, a strawberry slice, and a lemon wheel on the rim of the glass.
