Since the dawn of time, good things have been hitching wagons to create GREAT things.
We all know peanut butter is good by the spoonful and Netflix is cool when we’re alone. But adding a little J to our PB and some Chill to our Netflix gives us the immediate, and undeniable sense that we have just leveled up. Sunny, summer vibes and yummy, day-drinks are surely one of those iconic duos. One or the other is great… both is better
See, Wave knows. And in doing our part to help make sure that this happy couple remains blissful day after day and year after year, we’ve thrown together a few fruity, sparkling cocktails for your next Sunday Funday.
THAT’S MY BBG
Blueberry Basil & Ginger
What you’ll need:
1.5 oz of Basil Hayden’s Rye
.25 oz Simple Syrup
.25 oz Lime Juice
1 tsp minced ginger
1 handful of blueberries
6 Basil Leaves
3 oz Blueberry Wave Soda
How to make it:
Toss a handful of blueberries, 5 whole basil leaves, and minced ginger into your shaker. Add lime juice and simple syrup. Now buddy, muddle ‘til you can’t muddle no more. Next, pour in your Basil Hayden’s Rye and a scoop of ice and shake for 30 seconds. Strain your now perfectly pink rye into a rocks glass. Fill it with ice and top it off with 3 oz of Blueberry Wave Soda.
Oh, you fancy?
Garnish your concoction by using a spoon to push a whole basil leaf half way down the side of the glass. Shimmy three blueberries onto a wooden spear and lay it across the top of the glass. Who knew fruity could be so badass.

Drop a baddabing cherry to the bottom of the glass. Color, texture, flavor, and all from a garnish? Man, you’re good at making drinks.

Oh, you fancy?
A spiraled twist of lemon resting on the edge of the glass. What’re you James Bond or something? Now, day-drink and be merry, my fellow (responsible) boozehounds.
