Notes

  • Non-carbonated mineral water and tap water are also suitable for diluting the basil syrup. I make the lemonade with sparkling water that comes fresh from my sparkling water maker**.
  • You can adjust the amount of agave syrup to taste. Instead, you can use maple syrup, brown sugar, or ready-made sugar syrup**, among other things.
  • Lime juice can be used instead of lemon juice. Take the amount of juice to taste.
