AdInstructions
Combine all ingredients in a shaker with one large ice cube and shake vigorously for 8 to 10 seconds. Double strain the mixture into a coupe glass. Skip garnishing but consider adding a small basil leaf on top for decoration.
To make the blueberry basil syrup, combine sugar and water in a pan. Muddle half a cup of blueberries into it, then simmer gently for 3 to 5 minutes without boiling. Turn off heat and stir in one-third cup of fresh basil leaves. Allow to cool before straining through a fine mesh sieve.
