I'm not usually a fan of gin cocktails, but this one is an exception. The strawberry and basil flavors are so refreshing and the gin adds a nice subtle flavor.

I tried this cocktail with vodka instead of gin and it was delicious! I also added a squeeze of lime juice and it really brightened up the flavor.
