If you’re looking for a refreshing summer drink…
Last night my friend Anna’s mom made this and it was so delicious that I had to make some myself today. Here is what you need.
A few cups of cut pineapple. (the fresher the better but canned will do just fine too!)
A few fresh basil leaves. (if you like basil, consider growing your own plant. it’s probably one of the easiest herbs to keep alive)
A few spoonfuls of sugar.
Water and lots of Ice cubes!
This drink is supposed to be very diluted and watery. It’s a nice refreshment from the summer heat and also is very good for your digestion!
Mix pineapple, whole basil leaves and sugar in a food processor. Really blend it up well. Put this mixture into the bottom of a pitcher and fill it with ice water. That’s it! Feel free to add more sugar or other ingredients if you want any of the flavors stronger.
