As often as possible, we will be meeting a Brixton bartender to learn some new cocktail recipes. This month we hit Seven at Brixton to meet Jonny and his quintessentially summer concoction.
Ingredients
50ml Stolichnaya Red vodka
½ lime squeezed
6 fresh strawberries
Pinch of basil leaves
Method
Muddle (bash a bit) five strawberries in a glass or cocktail shaker, add a pinch of basil leaves (saving one leaf & one strawberry for your garnish)
Add 50ml vodka and lime juice
Stir or shake over ice
Strain into a lowball glass or tumbler glass over fresh ice.
Garnish with fresh strawberry & basil leaf
