Recently, I have been reading a book from one of my favorite celebrity chefs about how to cook old world ITalian. Although it was a long, alcohol filled weekend (not on my end), I have been recently intrigued by the mystical plant known as basil... Plus there is a small thicket of it taking over my kitchen right now.
While I have yet to try this, I am intrigued by the thought of an unorthodox ingredient in a drink. This is the most appetizing mixture I could find.
It's called a Starry Lime:
- 1 1/2 oz Van Gogh Wild Appel Vodka
- 1 oz Cranberry Juice
- 5 Basil Leaves, torn
- Juice of half a lime
- basil leaf for garnish
- Add Van Gogh Wild Appel Vodka, cranberry juice, basil and lime juice into a shaker filled with ice.
- Shake vigorously and strain into a rocks glass filled with ice.
- Garnish with a fresh basil leaf.
... Right? YUM!
