Amalfi Afterglow

Description

Limoncello and basil give gin a sunny citrus-and-herb direction, finished with soda rather than a heavy sweet mixer. Build and top gently to preserve the bubbles.

Ingredients

40 ml London Dry Gin
20 ml Limoncello
15 ml lemon juice
4 leaves Basil Leaves
75 ml Soda Water

Equipment needed

Bar Spoon – Used in the recipe method

Instructions

Prepare the serving glass. Use fresh ice for a rocks, highball or wine-glass serve; chill stemware for a drink served without ice.
Combine 40 ml London Dry Gin, 20 ml Limoncello, 15 ml lemon juice, 4 leaves Basil Leaves in the prepared glass and stir briefly.
Gently add 75 ml Soda Water. Stir once to combine without flattening the bubbles.
Measure each ingredient and use freshly squeezed citrus where specified.
Finish with the suggested garnish and serve immediately.
