Momadonna science project: The Lemon Basil Martini


It all started when two Momadonnas decided they needed to run away, so they went to a restaurant specifically for a drink (it did have rave reviews). Meet the Lemon Basil Martini!

Now our Martini is not theirs but it is amazing! We started with a little internet research, as most things do, and it ended up an adventure hmmmm also as most things with the Momadonnas tend to do.

Well with a little research under our belt we decided to make our own. We pulled out our beakers, flasks, and measuring cups and went to work. Now the first version was not all it was cracked up to be (which didn't stop us from polishing it off). The second was a bit better but the third Ohhh the third now that was good stuff and the fifth went down smooth. So we decided to share! Here is our recipe and if you don't like it we suggest you keep drinking until you do!! *

6 oz citrus vodka
1 oz lemon juice
1 oz simple sugar (1/2 water 1/2 sugar mix)
A hand full of basil muddled to hell with a little bit of granulated sugar and lil bit o'lemon peel.
Then put it all in a James Bond type mixer add ice -shake not stir.



Then we named out new drink the "Thank you for coming so much." And that's a story for another time!
 
* IT WORKS - honest the more you drink it the better it tastes!
