Basil, strawberries and gin reinvent an old standard.
Strawberry Basil Lemonade
Makes 1 serving
- 1 oz. gin (I use Bombay Sapphire Gin)
- 3 basil leaves
- 1 large strawberry
- 2 oz. lemonade
- Club soda
- 1 strawberry and basil leaf for garnish
In a glass, muddle the strawberry and basil leaves. Fill with ice and set aside.
Add the gin and lemonade to a shaker and fill with fresh ice. Shake, and strain into the prepared glass. Top with a splash of club soda and garnish with a strawberry and a basil leaf. —Tana Wold, purchasing and events manager at City of Eden Prairie Liquor Stores.
