Happy Friday! We made it!

My last post included fresh basil and I couldn’t help but stay on the same page and make a drink that uses it. In my neck of the woods, we do not have a very pleasant forecast this weekend. Sometimes the only thing to fix multiple dreary days is a cocktail. The plus side? At least it’s spring. This drink absolutely screams spring, and it dulls the pain of the rain. It’s so fresh and so delicious.

I’m keeping this fast this fine Friday…

what you do:

Throw basil, cucumber, and lime juice to a shaker and muddle. Then, just add lemonade and vodka and shake, shake, shake! Pour over your glass of choice with ice and garnish with lime, cucumber, or both.

Side note: It’s absolutely shocking what I do to my kitchen while making the easiest of drinks. Like how do I destroy it all every single time?

Anyway, have a wonderful weekend! Avoid the rain and negative thoughts and maybe have a cocktail or two.
