I made this for my husband and I last week. It is a fresh tasting flavourful cocktail, perfect for a brunch. Use fresh lemon juice as the concentrate is not a good substitute. From Food and Drink Summer 2011
To a cocktail shaker filled iwth ice, add the juice of 1/2 lemon, 2 tbsp apricot jam, 4 ton basil leaves and 1/2 oz simple syrup. Shake vigorously and strain into a Champagne flute or coupe and top with a sparkling white wine.
Serves 1 (so double it!)
Simple Syrup
Combine equal parts sugar and boiling water and stir until sugar has dissolved. Once cooled, store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
