Berry Basil Vodka Cocktail

  • 1⁄2 c fresh berries (sliced strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)

  • 4-5 fresh basil leaves

  • 2 oz vodka

  • 1⁄2 oz lemon juice

  • 2 oz sparkling water (or club soda, or lemon lime soda for added sweetness)

  • Optional: Sugar the rim of your glass for added sweetness and interest

Add the berries and basil leaves to a cocktail shaker. Muddle to mash the berries and basil together. Add the vodka and lemon juice and fill the shaker halfway with ice.
