Welcome to Cindy's Recipe Vault

This is my recipe blog. I love to try new recipes, and I love to try new recipes on my family and friends. Sometimes people will want my recipe, so this blog is a way for you to get my tried and true recipes.
One thing you might notice, I use Honey in place of sugar. Less processed is what I like.

Enjoy the recipes,
Cindy

Gin Basil Smash

Equal parts of the following:

Gin
Lemon Juice
Simple Syrup (Equal parts water and sugar, dissolved)
Basil - 2 -5 leaves per glass

Add Basil, Lemon Juice, Simple Syrup, Gin and Ice to a cocktail shaker.  Shake vigorously to muddle the Basil really well so that the basil is bruised to get all the basil flavor in the cocktail.

I like to make some cuts in the basil leaves to help release the flavor.
Serve on Ice.
