A lower alcohol take on a margarita. Cranberry juice adds a gentle sweetness and gives it a gorgeous blush colour. Basil adds a garden-fresh twist.

Ingredients:

• 50ml Seedlip Grove 42
• 15ml blanco tequila
• 30ml cranberry juice
• 15ml lime juice
• 4 fresh basil leaves
• Flaky sea salt to coat rim
• To serve: additional fresh basil leaves

1. Place the Seedlip Grove 42, tequila, cranberry juice, lime juice and basil into a shaker that has plenty of ice. Shake vigorously.
2. Run a lime segment around the rim of the serving glass and dip it in flaky sea salt to create a perfect salty rim.
3. Place fresh ice cubes into the glass and strain the cocktail into the glass.
4. Enjoy!
