What you need:
2 oz vodka
1/2 lime, plus 1 lime for garnish
fresh basil
Slice half of a lime and add it to a mixing glass.
Add 3-4 fresh basil leaves.
Muddle.
Add vodka and ice.
Cover and shake until ice cold.

Use a pumpkin tool to carve scary teeth into a lime.
It’s helpful to work in semicircles starting in the “front”.
