If you're wondering what to do with your leftover basil plant after you've made your weekly spag bol, look no further than a gin basil smash!
The gin basil smash is a no-fuss, super simple, yet utterly delicious cocktail that you can make in minutes. Its a gorgeously fragrant modern classic that uses the peppery flavours of the basil to perfectly complement our Queen Cleo London Dry botanicals.
INGREDIENTS
Queen Cleo London Dry 50ml
25ml Lemon juice
15ml sugar syrup
Bunch basil leaves
METHOD
Add the basil and lemon juice to a shaker and really muddle (smash!)
Add the sugar syrup and ice to the shaker, shake and strain into ice filled rocks glass and garnish with basil leaf.
If you prefer, you can double strain for no basil-bits with a fine cocktail strainer.
