This is a fairly simple, and wonderfully herbal, martini which is kind of like a martini meets vodka tonic plus basil. I am very partial to simplicity in my drinks. Greyhound, gin and tonic, dirty martini, moscow mule: these are the kind of drinks that knock my socks off. I might throw in a few sweeter martinis and cocktails from time to time because my friends all seem to love them when I make them, but I really have to be in the mood for something sweet. This often coincides with my premenstrual times...fancy that.
Like my limonada, this utilizes a basil simple syrup that is very easy to make.
3 basil leaves, torn slightly
2 oz vodka
1 oz basil syrup
3/4 oz water
3/4 oz tonic
Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice and shake the ever-loving shit out of it. Strain into a fine and fancy martini glass and get crunk.
