Inspired Cocktail Recipe: Basil Gin and Tonic

It’s hard to go wrong with a gin and tonic this time of year. But sometimes I just need to get creative. As you can probably tell from this blog. This is simple but kind of interesting. And really, why not?

Basil Gin and Tonic

4-5 leaves of basil

two wedges of lime

1.5 oz. gin

4 oz. tonic, or to taste

Muddle basil with lime in the bottom of a lowball glass. Add ice. Add gin and tonic. Garnish with lime wedge. Voila.
