Basil Smash

Non-alcoholic cocktail recipe

A cocktail with basil may seem like an odd combination, but it is really delicious! This non-alcoholic cocktail gives you a refreshing, but savoury feeling. Delicious as an aperitif. And if you are wondering what smash means? Smash refers to crushing the ingredients using a pestle, making circular and pressing movements and squeezing out the flavours. Enjoy this mocktail with gin and basil without alcohol!
