Raspberry Merkin

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.
