This fragrant twist on the gimlet cocktail gets its clean green notes not from lime juice but from fresh basil. For extra glamour and aroma, tuck small sprigs of additional basil into each glass.
Ingredients:
1 cup basil lemon syrup
3/4 cup vodka
3/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 cup ice cubes
garnish: fresh basil sprigs (preferably lemon basil); lemon zest strips
Directions:
1. Stir together all ingredients in a pitcher until cold, then strain into 8- to 10-ounce glasses (such as Old Fashioned) half filled with ice.
