BASIL LEMONADE

Basil Lemonade image

In my quest to find recipes to take advantage of the bumper crop of basil I have right now, I came across this one found in the May 2003 issue of Sunset magazine. This is very refreshing! It's especially fun if you have lots of different varieties of basil available to you.

Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1/2 cup rinsed lightly packed fresh basil leaf
3 tablespoons sugar
4 cups water
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 sprig fresh basil

Steps:

In a 1 1/2 to 2 Qt glass bowl, combine basil leaves and sugar.
With a wooden spoon, crush leaves with sugar until thoroughly bruised;
add water and lemon juice,
Stir until sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes;
Taste and add more sugar if desired.
Pour through a strainer into ice-filled glasses.
Garnish with sprigs of fresh basil.
*Note:The type of basil you use will contribute to the'personality' of this drink.
Dark purple basil tints the lemonade pink and has a milder flavor than green varieties.
Lemon basil adds a lemon-drop essence.
Cinnamon and Thai basils make this more spicy.
