Cucumber, Basil Spagarita!
Quarantine has forced me to become an amateur mixologist, and if I've learn anything its that fresh ingredients are key. Yes, it might be a bit tedious to juice all those limes but trust me, your taste buds will thank you!
INGREDIENTS:
(Serves 2)
5 oz Lime Juice
1 oz Cucumber Juice
.5 oz Maple Syrup
4 oz Casamigos Blanco Tequila
2 Basil Leaves
Splash of Sparkling Water
To make cucumber juice, blend chunks of cucumber in the blender with a tablespoon of water. Once the cucumber has become a smooth puree, take a cheese cloth and squeeze out the liquid into a bowl.
Add your lime juice, cucumber juice, maple syrup, tequila and ice to your cocktail shaker, mix and serve over ice. Add a splash of soda water, stir, and garnish with basil leaves.
Enjoy!
