Ingredients:
1/2 lemon
4 to 6 large basil leaves, stems removed
3 to 4 teaspoons natural brown sugar, to taste
ice cubes
1 1/2 ounces flavored rum or flavored vodka (recommended: bacardi coco rum or skyy vanilla vodka)
3 ounces sweet and sour mix (recommended: finest call)
small sprig of basil, for garnish
Directions:
1. Cut the lemon into small cubes. Put all but 1 lemon cube, the basil, and brown sugar together in a glass and muddle until the consistency of a paste or jam. Fill a glass with ice. Pour rum and sweet and sour mix into shaker without ice. Put cap on and shake; this blends the spirit with the mixer and creates a froth . Strain into glass and stir.
