Method

Main Cocktail

1

Muddle the Basil

In a cocktail shaker, gently muddle the fresh basil leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to tear them into small pieces.

2

Add Liquids

Add lemon juice, simple syrup, and vodka to the shaker with the muddled basil.

3

Shake

Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill and mix the ingredients.

4

Strain

Double strain the mixture into a chilled coupe or wine glass to remove basil bits and ice shards.

5

Top with Sparkling Rosé

Gently pour the sparkling rosé over the strained cocktail to preserve the bubbles.

Garnish

6

Garnish with a fresh basil sprig and a lemon twist for aroma and presentation.
