BASIL LEMONADE



Basil Lemonade image

I tweaked this recipe it to make a refreshing drink. I love basil and this recipe has a wonderful basil-infused flavor. Delicious on a warm day or with grilled chicken. Serve over ice and garnish with fresh basil and lemon slices.

TWO-BASIL SPARKLING LEMONADE



Two-Basil Sparkling Lemonade image

A common herb used in an unusual way! I have two types of basil in my herb garden - lemon and sweet. I think these two would be perfect for this recipe. Others can be used also, for example - cinnamon or opal. Combine those with the sweet basil for this refreshing drink. You can also substitute dry vermouth for the tequila....DH and friends like the tequila.
