Ingredients

  • Basil-Mint Mojito
  • 1 shot Basil-Mint Simple Syrup (see below)
  • 1 shot White Rum
  • 1 Lime (juiced)
  • Fizzy water
  • 1 sprig Mint
  • 1 lime slice
  • Basil-Mint Simple Syrup
  • 2 cups Water

Instructions

  1. Fill a tall glass with cracked ice.
  2. Add the basil-mint simple syrup, white rum, and lime juice.
  3. Fill the glass with fizzy water and garnish with mint sprig and lime slice.
  4. If you like it even more basil-minty you could add a few basil and mint leaves at the very beginning and muddle them, so you have a dirty basil-mint mojito.
  5. Roughly chop the basil and mint.
  6. Combine all the ingredients in a small sauce pan and simmer over low heat, stirring, until sugar dissolves.
  7. Strain and discard the solids. (Actually, before doing so, taste the basil and mint. Delicious.)
