Garden fresh, softly sparkling
1.5 oz / 4.5 cl Purity Vodka 34 Signature Edition Organic
3/4 oz / 2 cl fresh lime juice
1/2 oz / 1.5 cl simple syrup
1/2 oz / 1.5 cl egg white
4 to 5 fresh basil leaves
Soda water, to top
Basil sprig, for garnish
Prefer no egg? A cocktail foamer or a little aquafaba gives the same silky texture.
Nordic Basil Fizz
The fizz is one of the oldest families of cocktails: spirit, citrus and sugar, shaken and lengthened with bubbles. The Nordic Basil Fizz gives it a fresh, green twist straight from the summer garden.
Basil brings a sweet herbal lift, lime keeps it crisp, and a little egg white creates a soft, silky foam. Vodka 34 Signature Edition brings Effortless Smoothness, letting the basil shine.
Light, fragrant and impossible to have just one sip of.
Gently press the basil leaves in the bottom of a shaker to release their aroma.
Add Vodka 34 Signature Edition, lime juice, simple syrup and egg white. Shake without ice for about 10 seconds to build the foam.
Add ice and shake again until well chilled.
Double strain into a highball glass over fresh ice, top with soda water and garnish with a basil sprig.
Press the basil, don’t crush it. A few gentle presses release the sweet oils, while hard muddling turns the leaves bitter. Double strain so the foam stays smooth and green-free.
