Add some pizzazz to your 4th of July celebrations with this refreshing and festive red, white, and blue drink recipe that can be made as a mocktail for kids as well!
FOR A COCKTAIL:
2 oz Gin
¾ oz Basil Syrup
¾ oz Lemon Juice
15 Blueberries
Leaves of 1 Rosemary Sprig
Club Soda
Garnish: Fresh Rosemary Sprig
FOR A MOCKTAIL:
¾ oz Basil Syrup
¾ oz Lemon Juice
15 Blueberries
Leaves of 1 Rosemary Sprig
2 oz Club Soda
Garnish: Fresh Rosemary Sprig
FOR A COCKTAIL:
Combine blueberries, rosemary leaves, and basil syrup in the bottom of a cocktail shaker and muddle until well combined. Add lemon juice and shake vigorously for 20 seconds. Double strain into a glass filled with ice, add the Gin, and top with a splash of club soda. Give a gentle stir and garnish with a sprig of rosemary.
FOR A MOCKTAIL:
Follow the same instructions only instead of a splash of club soda, top with 2 oz. I originally created this drink as a mocktail, so the club soda has been measured to ensure that it does not drown out the subtle flavors of the fruit and herbs!
