Basil smash is my house specialty but I'll experiment with it, had a big phase of getting into mixology this year though it's currently a lot less due to following a strict calorie planning.

I drink beer in the summer, bourbon whiskey in the winter. But I have a holiday tradition, on the solstice I buy myself a bottle of Lairds and spend the rest of the week mixing Jack Roses.
Jack Rose:
- 1 1/2 ounces applejack or apple brandy
- 3/4 ounces lemon or lime juice
- 1/2 ounce grenadine
Shake all ingredients until chilled, double strain into a coupe glass, garnish with lemon twist.
You'll basically never find a bar that stocks applejack, so if you want one you'll have to mix your own.
