    This recipe is amazing. If you don't like to have your kids or even you drinking sugar filled sodas this recipe is the one for you. You can just make the actual soda part and then flavor it whatever you want. Also it works great as a pop cycle and if you want it sparkling use sparkling water. Over all it is great!

    I use mint leaves instead of basil. Using basil in a drink is very odd to me.

    I would definitely add at least 2+ tablespoons of the simple syrup lemon juice mix to the cup but overall a really refreshing way to use your fresh basil plant!
