Sometimes fall leaves me feeling a little heavy and sick of comfort food and drinks. Just like the crisp autumn air, this drink always feels fresh, and best of all, it's guilt-free!

Directions:
Model your basil leaves or crush and chop them if you don't have a muddler. Cut 2 thin slices of lemon and set them aside.
Add them to your cocktail shaker and squeeze in all of the juice from the remainder 1/2 lemon. Add a handful of ice and the vodka, and shake it until well mixed.
Pour into 2 glasses, top off with seltzer water, and add the lemon slices for garnish.
Cheers!
