This tangy basil-infused drink is made for summer.
- Prep Time : 5 minutes
- Cook Time : 10 minutes
Ingredients
- Sugar - 1 cup
- fresh basil leaves, plus 8 sprigs for garnishing - 1 cup

Instructions
- In a small saucepan, over medium heat, bring the sugar and 1 1/2 cups cold water to a simmer. Cook, without stirring, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat, add the basil, and let cool to room temperature. Strain the syrup into a resealable container and discard the solids.
