Strawberry Basil Lemonade
This is from the cocktail menu at Houlihan’s Restaurant. They won’t tell all ingredients or measures, so there’s some guesswork here.
When I tasted this I was pleasantly surprised at the strawberry basil combination. The basil should have been muddled more to release its oils and the drink was a little sweet for my taste, however.
