Sollasa Basil Gimlet

A short, bright, drink tinged with sweetness, served straight up with an optional dash of Grapefruit bitters.

INGREDIENTS

• 50ml Sollasa
• 20ml Lime
• 15ml Simple syrup
• 5-6 leaves of basil
• 1 dash Grapefruit bitter (optional)

METHOD

• Add all ingredients to a cocktail shaker with ice
• Shake and strain into a martini or coupe glass
• Garnish with a single basil leaf

Accompaniment: An exceptional aperitif, but also a fantastic accompaniment to those fragrant, spicy, yet deliciously decadent Indian starters.
