Are you a lemon? Or a lime? Based on a gin gimlet, pick the citrus of your choice. This one is inspired by my friend Stephanie. xoxo.

ingredient list:

• 2 oz. bloom gin (or any botanical gin)
• 2 oz. brovo + rg rose geranium liqueur
• 1 oz. simple syrup
• 1 oz. lemon or lime juice
• fresh basil
• tonic water or soda water (optional)

To make the simple syrup:

Bring 1 cup of water to a boil, add 1 cup sugar, stirring until dissolved. Store in the frig.

To mix the drink:

Begin by muddling a few basil leaves in the bottom of your cocktail shaker. Then drop a handful of ice cubes. Pour all ingredients (but not the fizzy ones!) over the ice. Lid on. Shake away. Pour into your glass. Top with the fizz of your choice. Enjoy!
