Lemonade Basil & Ginger Mocktail with Macerated Blackberries

A Grown up Tasting Drink for Entertaining Everyone | One of my most popular drinks!


INGREDIENTS:

2 C freshly squeezed lemon juice

3 ½ C simple syrup (recipe below)

1 pint blackberry chopped or sliced and mashed slightly with a muddler

4 C club soda

4 t grated fresh gingerroot

8 large fresh basil leaves

8 thin slices of fresh lemon

Ice to fill


METHOD:

Bring out the 8 glasses. Fill each with:

  • ½ t grated ginger
  • 1/8th of the macerated blackberries
  • ¼ C lemon juice
  • 3/8 C simple syrup (can add more to taste if you want sweeter)
  • Massaged basil leaf (just rub it well between your fingers before dropping into glass
  • ½ C club soda. Mix well.
  • Then add ice right before serving and the lemon slice

NOTE: Would be delicious with a shot of good vodka to make it into a grown-up drink!
