Cocktail Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Glass
Begin by chilling a cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water while you prepare the drink, then discarding the ice water before serving.

Muddle the Basil
In a cocktail shaker, add the fresh basil leaves. Use a muddler to gently press the leaves to release their aromatic oils. Be careful not to shred the leaves.

Add the Liquids
Pour in the Belvedere vodka, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup into the shaker with the muddled basil.

Shake the Mixture
Fill the shaker with ice cubes. Secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to combine and chill the ingredients.

Strain into Glass
Using a fine mesh strainer, strain the mixture into the chilled cocktail glass to remove the basil leaves and ice.
