How to Make Strawberry Shag
- In a small bowl, gently toss 1 cup sliced strawberries with 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar. Let sit for 15 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices.
- In a cocktail shaker, combine the macerated strawberries (with any accumulated juice), and 1/4 cup of fresh basil leaves.
- Gently muddle the strawberries and basil using a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon until slightly crushed but not pureed.
- Fill the cocktail shaker with ice.
- Add 2 ounces of vodka and 1 ounce of fresh lemon juice to the shaker.
- Securely cap the shaker and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until well-chilled.
- Strain the mixture into a large glass filled with ice.
- Top with 4 ounces of chilled soda water.
- Gently stir to combine.
- Garnish with a fresh strawberry slice and a basil sprig. Serve immediately and enjoy!
