Tobago Shipwreck

     Following the  idea of the month,"herb garden," I came up with the Tobago Shipwreck . An herbaceous tea mixture combined with rum, lime and a sweetened soda. The rum on this was definitive with a nice backing of sweetness rounding out to a descent herbaceous bitterness. Try it and tell me what you think.

2 oz. Pyrat XO rum
1 oz. "tea syrup" (lime basil, pineapple sage, toasted coconut, and lime peel steeped for five minutes and sweetened with Truvia)
0.5 oz. lime juice
2 basil leaves
- muddle, add 2 dashes Jamaican bitters, and top with "7Up" (Sierra Mist)
