Ingredients

1/3 cup sugar

1 cup fresh basil, plus more for garnish

4 plums, pitted and sliced

1 cup gin

3 cups seltzer, chilled

Directions

  1. Make the basil syrup: Bring the sugar and 1/3 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Stir in the basil, then remove from the heat and let cool completely, about 1 hour, then strain.
  2. Muddle 3 plums in a large liquid measuring cup with a wooden spoon. Stir in the basil syrup and gin. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Pour into ice-filled glasses and top with the seltzer. Garnish with basil and the remaining sliced plum.
