Opal basil gimlet
Cocktails
Homemade Opal Basil Gin does very well in a Gimlet, the basil giving it just another layer of herbaceous flavor, and the fresh lime adding the citrus-y zip. Garnish with a clipping of the top of the basil plant, right where it begins to blossom, adding more of that sweet basil aroma to the cocktail. <br /> <br />Basil Gin was the first infusion I made with my Sous Vide, following the recipe from The Cocktail Lab by Tony Conigliaro, but of course I grabbed the gorgeous Opal Basil at the market! It's quite simple: wash basil, put basil in sous vide bag, add gin, squeeze out air, seal bag, throw in sous vide, strain. Presto! Basil Gin! <br /> <br />http://www.gastronomista.com/2014/04/opal-basil-gimlet.html#.VEUVasm2VW2 <br />
