Cold River Vodka, Orange Juice, Limoncello and Basil

Equal parts vodka and orange juice; add a dash of Limoncello and simple syrup infused with basil, garnish with purple basil! A light, refreshing cocktail!

The cocktail tastes as good as it looks!

So I have a fascination with photographing cocktails! I don’t know what it is, the ice, the clear glass, the vibrant colors of the drink…

This one started with a small amount of Basil Simple Syrup, then Ketel One Vodka (ran out of Cold River Vodka, made in Maine, of course), Limoncello, Cointreau, Blueberry Pomegranate juice and a splash of club soda. The syrup at the bottom prevented the ingredients from mixing until I stirred them.
