Begin by adding strawberries to a cocktail shaker. Use a muddler or long wooden spoon to crush the strawberries until the juices are released. Add ½ lemon juice, 1 ounce vodka and ½ to 1 ounce of basil simple syrup. Fill the cocktail with ice and shake well. Strain into a flute and top with sparkling wine.
For basil simple syrup - In a small saucepan over medium heat, basil, water, and honey to a simmer. Remove from heat and let basil leaves steep for 1 hour. Strain through a fine mesh strainer to remove basil leaves. Refrigerate to chill.
