This is my spin on lemonade. The basil makes all the difference!
6 cups water
1 1/2 cups sugar
5 basil leaves
1 cup lemon juice (I prefer fresh-squeezed)
Place 2 cups water, sugar and basil in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until sugar is dissolved to make simple syrup. While heating, place 4 cups water and lemon juice in a 2 quart, non-reactive pitcher. Remove basil leaves and add syrup to pitcher. Stir and serve over ice.
