We made this drink up while practicing social distancing during the coronavirus pandemic of 2020. This is now our favorite gin cocktail recipe. Does it really ward off the virus? Maybe not. But it definitely helps you forget for a bit that the world is ending. :)
The included recipe makes 2 drinks.
1. Place raspberries and basil in cocktail shaker and lightly muddle together.
2. Add gin, fresh lime juice, simple syrup, and ice to shaker and shake for 10-15 seconds.
3. Strain mixed drink into a glass
Simply syrup note: regular simple syrup is a 1:1 sugar to water ratio, and "heavy syrup" which is often used in cocktails for the more syrup'y feel to it is a 2:1 sugar to water ratio. We used a ratio in between those two - a 1.5:1 sugar to water.
Optional: garnish with additional raspberries, limes slices, or fresh basil leaves.
