Muddle Basil

In a cocktail shaker, place the fresh basil leaves and gently muddle them using a muddler or the back of a spoon. This releases the essential oils from the basil.

Pour in the strawberry vodka, fresh lime juice, and pineapple juice into the shaker with the muddled basil.

3

Shake

Fill the cocktail shaker with ice and securely close it. Shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill and combine the ingredients.
