Kendra thompsons lucy basilia is a flagship cocktail at lucys fried chicken, an austin chain of eateries. Theyve been serving the recipe for the better part of a decade, and its clear why the fresh, bright flavors are a perfect match for fried food and southern specialties. If youre short on plain club soda or sparkling water, a flavored sparkling water with a subtle lemon or berry flavor is plenty serviceable. If you prefer a clearer drink, double-strain it through a fine mesh sieve into the glass. We tend to double-strain drinks that might contain berry pips or bits of greenage but in this case, we actually prefer a more rustic presentation.
