MAKE IT HAPPEN
- Blend all espuma ingredients until smooth, then strain.
- Transfer to a siphon, respecting its maximum fill line. Charge with 1 N₂O cartridge for a 0.5 L siphon or 2 for a 1 L siphon.
- Chill for at least 30 minutes. The colder the espuma, the thicker it becomes.
- Stir the cocktail ingredients over ice in a mixing glass.
- Pour over ice in a glass and top with basil espuma.
