Super Nova

2014-10-26

Ingredients

  • 2 oz Gin
  • 1½ oz Basil Syrup*
  • 1 oz Lime Juice
  • 12 Blueberries
  • 1 Cardamom pod

  • Add the cardamom pod to the glass of a Boston Shaker and muddle sharply to break up the pod and expose the seeds. Add the blueberries and gin and aggressively muddle the blueberries. Add the remaining ingredients, with ice, and shake to chill. Strain into a coupe glass. Do not garnish.

  • *See our Basil Syrup recipe/video.

The Super Nova (a take on our Pink Nebula) is a FLAVOR BOMB! It is tart, tasty, complex, and aromatic with nice balance of citrus and sweetness. You can use a London Dry style gin, and we often do, but this cocktail screams for a more funky modern-style gin with lots of character – like North Shore’s No. 6, Ransom’s Small’s Gin, Corsair… Just like the Pink Nebula, this concoction uses basil syrup to add a sweet and spicy bite. We have several cocktails which utilize our (basil syrup, so make a batch and give them all a try. Cheers!
