Ingredients

  • ¼ cup blueberries 4tbsp
  • 4 basil leaves
  • 1 oz lemon juice 2tbsp
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • ¼ cup whiskey 2oz/60ml, suggest Irish but can be bourbon or a non-peaty Scotch whisky
  • ½ cup dry white vermouth 4oz/120ml
  • ½ cup soda water 4oz/120ml , approx

Instructions

  • Divide the blueberries and basil between two glasses. Muddle them together until the blueberries are well broken up.
  • Add 1tbsp lemon juice, ½tsp sugar, 1oz whiskey and 2oz vermouth to each glass and mix. If you have time, it's worth chilling the mixture at this point to allow the flavors to mingle a little better. Around an hour would be great, but if you can't you can still serve immediately.
  • When ready to serve, add 2-3 ice cubes to each glass and top up with soda water.
