Recipe: The Amalfi Dream

It’s time for another delicious cocktail recipe! This one is undoubtedly inspired by our time on the Amalfi Coast but also because of the extreme heat we are currently experiencing in Basel where air conditioning is not a thing…

It’s summer, and the heat is quickly setting in! This refreshing cocktail hits the spot, but be warned! It goes down incredibly easy like Lemonade on a hot day. It can leave you a bit tipsy if you aren’t careful!

Our recipe has a twist in replacing the usual mint with basil!

Directions

Add the lemon juice, vodka, and limoncello to a shaker with a few ice cubes. Shake vigorously for 20 seconds and pour over the ice, sparkling water, and lemon slices in a tall glass. Top with sparkling water and your chosen herb.
