Because my family is hosting a Sunday brunch on our beautiful house ka terrace this November, i have been trying recipes and recipes to make the perfect sip for the day! After incessant trials and flavor testing, i have come up with fabulous- Strawberry Basil Lemonade that will make you drool by simply looking at the glass full of freshness.
Simple steps, easy ingredients and not to forget a proud mommy post all the hard work ;)

The last step is to add lemon juice, the soda water in the mixture of strawberry,basil, sugar,apples and not to forget lots of crushed ice and what you will actually get is the picture below-
