Basil Vodka Gimlet Cocktail
Description:
Recordbox Obsessions presents our Basil Vodka Gimlet Cocktail is a fresh, herbaceous twist on the classic gimlet cocktail. It typically combines vodka, freshly squeezed lime juice, simple syrup, and muddled basil leaves, creating a crisp balance of citrus brightness, subtle sweetness, and aromatic green notes. The basil adds a fragrant, slightly peppery depth that complements the clean character of the vodka, resulting in a refreshing and elegant drink often served chilled in a coupe or martini glass.
