Over Clover

Ingredients:
1 jigger 100-proof vodka, chilled
2 small-to-medium fresh sweet basil leaves
4-5 fresh mint leaves
4 oz. chilled lemon-lime soda (diet is fine)
1 small scoop lime sherbet

Directions:
Place herb leaves in a shaker glass, add vodka, and crush the daylights out of the herbs. I mean, really mash them to smithereens. Allow this mixture to sit as long as you can stand. Add three or four ice cubes (not crushed!) and shake vigorously. Strain over a glass. Add 4 ounces of lemon-lime soda, top with a scoop of lime sherbet. Garnish with fresh, washed clover! (Or anything green you have on hand, but I don’t recommend twisting lime peel over this — it’s too acidic.)

I’ll post the rest of the recipes in a separate entry, so check back soon!

Thanks again to Best4Men and Tasty Jewelry for donating our terrific prizes!
