ABOUT
This one comes from Claudine Raciti (@claudine_drinks). What is probably catching your eye is the use of olive oil. Fat is a wonderful addition to a drink (usually as a fat-wash), but adding oil itself creates a nice texture and lasting notes. Basil is the perfect garnish to tie it all together. Cheers y’all!
