Butterfly

Inspired by our secret ingredient the Potential Butterfly, aka a caterpillar, this week we have the mildly boring Butterfly.

It’s ok, very clean, fresh & summery. It’s entirely pleasant but as you know I much prefer a beverage that’s full of flavour & punches you in the face.

8 White Grapes

3 Basil leaves

3 Mint leaves

1 ½oz Vodka

¼oz Elderflower Liqueur

¼oz Lemon Juice

Give your grapes a good squish to break them up and add the rest of your ingredients to your shaker. Shake everything together, you’ll need all the strainers to make sure you filter out the leafy bits.

Sinead found it a bit soapy, probably all the basil. I didn’t get the soap but missed the ooomph of flavour that I like. I can see this coming out in the summer as an alternative to pimms or some such for a delightfully civilised afternoon.
