Summer In A Glass - The Basil Mojito

- One of the main keys to growing basil well is to regularly top your plants. If you do this, the basil will continue to grow, providing ample supply throughout your growing season. This drink is one of our "keys" to making exactly that happen, providing us a regular use of our basil throughout the season.
This has become one of our most anticipated mixed drink cocktails we make out of our gardens every year. While we do make plenty of traditional mint based mojitos too, our basil recipe is the hands down winner for us.
As mentioned, Thai basil is our absolute favorite type that we put into this cocktail, but there's a ton of room for other experimentation. Regular Genovese (sweet) basil is always really good, too. We usually grow two types of basil, Genovese and one of the 150 other types of basil out there every year.
We've been pursuing these "garden cocktails" for years and have a whole line up of that we can make. If this video takes off, we might make a few more of them.
Also, we're trying to get a few of these "quick, one take" videos into our lineup to see how they do. We only have about 90 to 110 days to make our gardening content, so it'd help both you and us if our viewers are open to "less edited" content that's easy for us to put out there. We know we live in a highly edited world, but since we're a new channel, we're experimenting a little bit, too.
Hope you enjoy! Let us know if you have any variations on this drink or if you give it a go yourself!
Just bought a basil plant. The leaves are delicious on their own. :)
