Cocktail Preparation
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all the ingredients: vodka, fresh lemon juice, basil leaves, simple syrup, and ice cubes.
Muddle the Basil
In a cocktail shaker, add the fresh basil leaves. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the basil leaves to release their essential oils.
Add the Liquids
Pour in the vodka, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup into the shaker with the muddled basil.
Shake the Cocktail
Fill the shaker with ice cubes. Secure the lid tightly and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to mix the ingredients and chill the drink.
