ARIEL Thai Basil Faux-Jito
With zesty Thai basil instead of mint, we’ve put a Pacific spin on this Cuban classic!
Ingredients
- 4 fresh Thai basil sprigs
- 1 Tbsp. fine cane sugar
- 3 Tbsp. fresh squeezed lime juice
- 2 oz. ARIEL Blanc
- club soda
- ice
Directions
In a highball glass, crush basil leaves, sugar and lime juice together with a muddler (or the back of a spoon) until well blended. Stir in ARIEL Blanc, and top with chilled soda and ice. Garnish with a lime wedge and a basil leaf.
For the risk-taker
What’s a Thai recipe without that extra kick in the pants? For a seriously adventurous evening, try smashing in some thin slices of fresh jalapeño.
