[edit] Recipe

In a shaker:

  • 4 Fresh Basil Leaves (shredded)
  • 1/2 teaspoon of sugar or simple syrup

At this point, grind the sugar into the basil to release the flavours. After about a minute of grinding add some ice to the shaker. Then add:

  • 2 ounces of white rum
  • 1 large lime
  • 1 ounce Triple Sec (or to taste)

Shake vigorously until well chilled and serve in a Martini glass.
