Handling some of my basil surplus before it bolts. A bit of basil, some 190 proof everclear that someone donated. This will sit in a dark space for a few months. Basil lemonade is definitely on the menu. Maybe a vodka sauce for pasta.

Use it in a Gold Cup

Served in: Lowball glass

Handful Basil Leaves 1/2 parts Lime Juice 1/2 parts Sugar Syrup 1/2 parts Coconut Cream 2 parts The Wild Geese Whiskey

Place a small handful of basil leaves with coconut cream and lime juice in a blender and blend together until you have a liquid form. Pour into a cocktail shaker with sugar syrup and The Wild Geese Classic Blend Irish whiskey, then shake hard with ice. Serve in a rocks glass over crushed ice and add a passion fruit shell. Fill the shell with blue curaçao and garnish with the zest of a lemon. Add your nation's flag to celebrate your team for the final, and serve.
