If a winter getaway isn’t in the cards, why not try a transporting at-home cocktail? On the Balearic Islands, “basbas” is a term of endearment for the spirit hierbas, first distilled there by monks in the 15th century. The version of the drink from the newly launched Basbas (the brand) tastes of anise, citrus and sage, and can be sipped on its own or used, say, to replace the rum in a mojito. It’s made in the Santa Eulalia region of Ibiza according to a recipe that’s been kept secret by a single family for generations.
