A sparkingly refreshing sour
| 1 1⁄2 | oz | Bourbon, Old Forester |
| 1⁄2 | oz | Raspberry syrup |
| 1⁄2 | oz | Lemon juice |
| 1 | oz | Champagne |
| 1 | lf | Basil (as garnish) |
Instructions
Shake bourbon, syrup, and juice; strain into a flute, top with champagne, and garnish with a slapped basil leaf
Notes
This drink should be tart, so be careful not to make it too sweet. I would not omit the basil leaf, either.
