Gin Basil Smash - Better with Green or Purple Basil?

Purple Basil Smash versus Green Basil Smash - can we improve on this classic cocktail? To find out, we'll make a simple Purple Basil Cordial based on a cocktail I had while visiting the Archive Bar in Almaty, Kazakhstan. With that we are then ready to try a stunning floral Basil Smash, as well as a Purple Gin & Tonic that is sure to amaze your guests! So if you are a fan of quick and easy cocktails, that are even easier to batch, then you won’t want to miss this. It’s Cocktail Time!
