- Four basil leaves
- 2 teaspoon sugar brown or white
- 1 1/2 ounces rum
- 1 cucumber rind julienned
- 1 slice cucumber finely diced
- 1/4 fresh lime
- Soda water
Instructions
- Tear the basil leaves in half and place in bottom of tall glass. Add sugar and 1/2 ounce of the rum. Coil 12 inches' worth of cucumber julienne in bottom of glass. Add one slice cucumber diced fine. Mash together these ingredients. Squeeze lime and drop in glass. Add remaining rum. Top with soda water.
