First time creating a community like this! r/cocktails was one of my favorite subreddits and I wanted to move it over. Posting here to get some content started and I hope you enjoy!

Recipie:

  • 6-10 basil leaves (depending on size)
  • 2 oz dry gin
  • ½ oz Elderflower liqueur
  • 1 oz Lime Juice
  • ½ oz Honey syrup

Muddle Basil leaves in gin, then add in remaining ingredients. Shake with ice and double strain into glass. Garnish with a basil sprig. (side note: using purple basil makes the drink turn a lovely pink.)

    This cocktail was made for me, thank you (and thanks for starting the community).

    Glad there are others of us here! I’ll have to make something tonight and make my own post

      That’s awesome! I’m planning to go though my cocktail recipes and post a few times a week to get some content going. I’m glad you’re here!

        Aw man, just tried to post, but it’s erroring out. I think our host’s machine is struggling

          I’ve been trying to create a succulents community for the last hour 🙃

      Most syrups I do 1:1, but the honey syrup I like to do 2:1 since it’s already partly liquid.
