I told my friend Bridget that this is one of the top 5 drinks I’ve made so far, and I wouldn’t lie to her — or to you guys! Trust me when I say that you NEED to save this and make it asap!
INGREDIENTS:
1 oz gin
1 oz strawberry-infused Campari
1 oz sweet vermouth
1/2 oz basil syrup
METHOD:
Add a large ice cube to a mixing glass. Add gin, strawberry-infused Campari, sweet vermouth and basil syrup. Mix until chilled.
Strain into a negroni glass over a large ice cube. Garnish with fresh basil, and enjoy!
Strawberry-Infused Campari:
Combine 1/2 cup halved strawberries and 1 cup Campari.
Refrigerate overnight. Strain, and you’re good to go!
Basil Syrup:
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
3-4 large basil leaves
Combine ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir occasionally until sugar dissolves.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
Once cool, strain syrup into an airtight container and store in the fridge.
