THAI BOXER COCKTAIL- A delicious adventure from the breezy tropics to the warmth of your home. Perfect pairing with pork, most seafood or a grilled chicken dish.
Scott Beattie comes to us from renowned restaurant Cyrus in San Francisco with this sweet and spicy concoction. It integrates the herbal forces of Thai Basil, mint, and cilantro. His drinks are made using ingredients that comes to him from friends or local farmers, most of which are delivered to his door.
10 Thai Basil Leaves (plus 1 Thai Basil Sprig)
10 mint leaves
10 cilantro leaves
1/2 oz. simple syrup
Ice
1.5 oz. vanilla spiced rum
1/2 oz. unsweetened coconut milk
1/2 oz. fresh lime juice
1 oz. chilled ginger beer
In a cocktail shaker, muddle the basil leaves with the mint, cilantro, and simple syrup. Add ice and the vanilla spiced rum, coconut milk and lime juice and shake well. Strain the drink into an ice filled highball glass and stir in the ginger beer. Garnish with the basil sprig.
