Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

In a cocktail shaker, muddle one basil leaf with simple syrup. (I don’t have a muddler so I simply chopped my basil very fine and mixed well with syrup)
Add vodka and grapefruit juice. Fill shaker with ice and shake.
Strain into martini glass and garnish with remaining basil leaf.

Notes

To make simple syrup, combine 1 cup of water with 1 cup of sugar. Heat over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Cool before using.
