INGREDIENTS

/// FOR 4 GLASSES ///

/ ½ bunch of basil

/ 16cl white rum

/ 8cl cane sugar syrup

/ 8cl lime juice

/ Crushed ice

/ Schweppes® Citrus (Agrumes)

INSTRUCTIONS

Blend the basil leaves (keep 4 aside for garnish) in a small chopper with a splash of Schweppes®, then strain.

In a pitcher, mix the strained basil-infused Schweppes®, rum, cane sugar syrup, and lime juice.

Crush the ice cubes in a blender and distribute the crushed ice into tall cocktail glasses.

Pour the cocktail over the crushed ice, top up with more Schweppes® to taste, and garnish with a basil leaf before serving immediately.

OUR TIPS

For a non-alcoholic version, simply skip the rum.

You can also replace the cane sugar syrup with lime syrup for an even zingier, more acidic kick.
