ChefXi OfficialA vibrant gin sour infused with fresh Thai basil and a hint of bird's eye chili, balanced by elegant elderflower. Shaken and served up.
In a shaker tin, lightly muddle the Thai basil leaves and one small slice of bird's eye chili with the simple syrup.
Don't over-muddle the chili unless you want extreme heat; one slice is usually enough.
Add Hendrick's Gin, St-Germain, and lemon juice to the shaker.
Fill with ice and shake hard for 15 seconds.
Double strain into a chilled coupe glass to remove basil bits and chili seeds.
Garnish with a fresh Thai basil sprig.
A bright, aromatic sour that uses French Elderflower liqueur to soften the heat of the Thai chili. It's floral, spicy, and incredibly refreshing. Pairs perfectly with spicy Thai cuisine.
