This recipe is for those yummy basil leaves we have an abundance of in the summer. My favorite is lime basil.
Serves 4
2 cups basil leaves
7 cups just boiled water
3/4 c honey or to taste with sweetener of choice.
1 T lemon juice
Place basil in 1/2-gallon mason jar.
Pour just boiled water over basil leaves and steep 20-30 minutes.
Strain.
Add honey or sweetener and stir well.
Add lemon and adjust to taste.
Store in the refrigerator for 1 week.
