Lemon Basil Martini


1 part Vodka
1/2 part Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice
1/2 part Simple Syrup
Splash of Soda Water
3-4 Fresh Basil Leaves

In a shaker muddle 3-4 basil leaves with ice. Add vodka, fresh squeezed lemon juice, simple syrup and shake very well (about 30 seconds). Pour in a martini glass and add a splash of soda water.

*To make simple syrup: in a small sauce pan combine one cup of sugar and one cup of water. Bring to a boil, stirring, until sugar has dissolved. Allow to cool.
