Method
Preparation of Strawberry – Basil Syrup
Make the Syrup
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup of fresh strawberries (hulled and sliced) with 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of water. Stir until the sugar dissolves and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, add a handful of fresh basil leaves and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let steep for 15 minutes. Strain the mixture into a clean container, discarding solids, and allow the syrup to cool completely.
Cocktail Assembly
Mix the Cocktail
In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, combine 2 oz of Luksusowa vodka, 1 oz of the prepared strawberry-basil syrup, and 1 oz of fresh lemon juice. Shake well until the mixture is chilled.
Strain and Serve
Strain the cocktail mixture into a chilled glass filled with ice.
Add the Prosecco Float
Carefully top the cocktail with 3 oz of Prosecco, pouring gently to maintain the float effect.
Garnish
Garnish the drink with a fresh basil leaf and a whole strawberry on the rim of the glass for an elegant presentation.
