Mango Ginger Vodka Cocktail Recipe

Step 1

Place honey, water, salt and minced ginger into a microwave-safe bowl or 2-cup glass liquid measuring cup. Place in microwave then bring liquid to a boil. Add mango and microwave just long enough to warm the fruit—about 20 seconds.

Step 2

Puree mango mixture in a food processor or blender then stir in juice of one lime—the puree should yield about 1 cup of liquid. Set aside to cool completely.

Step 3

When ready to serve, fill each glass with ice then pour in ¼ cup mango puree to each ¾ cup sparkling water. Add 1 oz vodka, a squeeze of fresh lime juice and one bruised basil leaf to the glass and stir to combine. Ensure the basil is submerged in the liquid then serve immediately.
