I wrote recently about how I arrived at the Blueberry-Fennel Frond Margarita recipe this summer. Thought I would share another cocktail creation I landed on recently: the Strawberry-Thai Basil Margarita.
My amazing wife, Mrs. Piehole, was at the garden nursery earlier this spring (ostensibly to buy tomato plants), and one of the things she came home with was this “combo pot” of four different basil plants. Four varieties of basil in a single pot. Before these plants got overly root bound with each other in their shared pot we split them up into their own separate containers out on the patio, where they each grew into big bushy plants that we’ve been clipping off of all summer. What we had were: sweet basil, lettuce leaf basil, purple basil, and Thai basil.
