Combine sugar, water, and basil in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat; cool 15 minutes.
Strain mixture, discarding basil. Basil simple syrup makes ¾ cup.
Add gin, juice, and 1 to 1½ Tbsp basil simple syrup to a mixing glass filled half full with ice; stir 10 seconds until well chilled. Strain gin mixture into a coupe glass. Top with sparkling water. Garnish, if desired.
