Girls, how much dry basil do you need per serving?
I have 2 sachets of 15 g.
Rituslya
Nelechka, here I am, a bastard that only today the recipe caught my eye. I’m such a stupid thing!
I don’t ask any questions yet, because the main thing is to have time to hide them in the bookmarks and not give them to anyone.
All is mine!
Nelechka, thanks!

Nilushka, how to guess what's in the bag is purple basil?

purple basil in the bag?
Wit, Vitaly, I have painted green on 1 m, purple on 2 m.
I hope so

Light, Thank you! Boom purple look!

Olekma, Katerina, I'm sorry, I squelched your review! Yes, the drink turns out to be niche! Refreshing! So plant more basil and make delicious lemonade

I looked at the place of residence and was surprised. Do you have basil growing? He's so warm


Light, Svetik, still relevant? If you do not mind, you can pour out 2 sachets. But you can get by with one. And, of course, it also depends on the amount of water.
I have not bothered with proportions for a long time and pour it on the eye.
Rituslya, Rita, did you manage to hide it? Yes, okay, you won't give it to anyone! And you write this ... your kind and broad soul!
Ritus, enjoy your health, and share with everyone!
Wit, Vitaly, the color of the basil gives color to the drink. The color of the basil does not greatly affect the taste. But on the contrary, I really love lemon basil, and it is green. But I try to add it anyway.
On Sunday I brewed this very drink. First I added frozen purple, right with the stems. Then we were treated to 0.5 liters of birch sap. And I didn't like this pure birch sap. But then I brew a drink, and I poured the leftovers into the pan too. Then I remembered that I still had dried lemon basil. I added it too, then a couple of sprigs of mint. And before boiling 1.5 lemons (the lemon was not big, and some juice was squeezed out from the half, it was necessary to attach). The drink was not bright, but intense.
Wit
So it is possible with sachets.

Thank you!

Vital, of course, fresh raw materials will be better! And I would suggest trying it with fresh, purple basil. Then you will feel the taste to the fullest! But for lack of fresh, you can of course use both frozen and dried.
Wit
Maybe I’m stupid, but I’ll ask How does lemon juice differ from citric acid?
nila
Nothing ... just the benefits of lemon
Will not affect the color!

Aroma.
nila
Well, yes, and of course the lemon gives the aroma.
But the acidity in this drink also plays a role for the color. At first, the drink is not clear in color, adds acid and a pink or raspberry color appears

Uraaaa !!!

I even brewed a drink from frozen in winter - great!
I have already sown basil in the box with seedlings. Everything is growing with us, but some need to put a little more effort.
Lemon did not find seeds, sowed purple for a drink.
Albina
nila, Nelya, something the recipe has not caught my eye before. Summer is ahead and the recipe can be used
nila
Olekma, Katerina, It's okay that I didn't find a lemon. Lemon flavor and lemon gives. But with purple basil, the drink will be a rich raspberry color.
Albina, it will be very pleasant if your family settles the recipe for this drink.
Wit
Nilushka, how much citric acid is needed to replace lemon?
Wit
I am reporting. Two thick sprigs of red basil, half a lemon cut into slices, sugar by eye (maybe half a glass). I took 1.5 liters of water. Boiled for 3 minutes, cooled slightly, filtered and cooled completely. Vkusnaaaaaa !!!!!

Thank you to me
nila
Wit, Vitaly, thanks for the photos, and the report!
A beautiful drink! In a beautiful jug!
Did you please your wife?
If you add 1 more sprig of basil, you should get a richer taste and color.
Wit
Coming soon, of course I will. It was a test. The color can be richer, and the taste is quite rich.
By color. Does the color depend on the amount of basil or the amount of lemon?
nila
Vitaly, both! But still, I think lemon plays a major role.
Karamelko
nila, Nelya, thanks for the wonderful recipe! Tested, everyone really liked it, especially on warm days.
And as a bonus - it is interesting to observe the transformation of color, just like a trick, you can delight children.

I am very pleased that this drink will delight one more family on sultry days.

I have been making this drink for 2 months now, I have sown purple basil specially. I treated the girls at work, now they ask me when I will bring this pink drink again, I liked it so much. Indeed, it is both refreshing and not harmful, I make it with a sugar substitute. But, he needs a name, otherwise a drink and a drink, * disrespectful * somehow. Tahun is made from Zstargon, can this one call Bazinad (Basil + lemonade) ,?
nila
Nataliawhat a colorful glass of drink! The main thing is that the color is natural, without any synthetic dyes
Thank you, dear, for a beautiful report with a photo!
Elena, and thank you for the report! And also with gratitude for the new name of the drink! Nobody called him that. I like the name, but I can't change anything. And everyone is already used to the old name

lesya-zhuk
Nelya, this is something special! Thank you so much for this wonderful drink! We are delighted.
The first time I asked my husband to buy basil for compote, he made me laugh! And now, for two weeks, he buys both lemon and grass.
julia_bb
I also want to make a red drink, I already bought purple basil
nila
lesya-zhuk, so it's good that my husband also joined the lovers of this drink! For the love that men especially loved!
And the basil compote really sounds funny, but this is only for the uninformed.

Delicious and refreshing drink! I cook it in a jug Charm (2L) or in a Universal (2L). I like it more in the station wagon - there is a strainer, the leaves do not fall into the mug later.
It turns out quickly and you do not need to cook - pour a handful of leaves and 5 tablespoons of sugar with boiling water and after a couple of minutes - add freshly squeezed juice of one lemon. It's worth getting cold. Then - into the refrigerator door. We do it very often, it is drunk quickly.

Julia, that means I was not mistaken! Why did I ask that I seem to remember you already unsubscribed in the topic that you were preparing this drink. There was simply no time to look back at Temko.
Drinks from green or purple basil do not differ in taste, but the color, yes, is prettier from purple kosheshno. And with purple, the taste can be a little richer ... or just so it seems to me
Elena17, I don't have such cool jugs, so I'm the old fashioned way
It's great that I don't need to cook more natural vi amines are saved
It's a shame I don't see a picture of your drink. Can I download them through the forum gallery?

It is not necessary to cook - it also turns out faster in time.

I also made from green - it also seemed to me that the taste from purple is richer.

Elena, thanks for the pictures! For the fact that I was not too lazy and inserted through the forum gallery! Now your photos can be seen by everyone who has seen them before.
You have a wonderful drink with a bright color!
And the jug is so generally And how convenient it is on the shelf of the refrigerator, very compassionate!
Seberia
nila, Nelya, I join the general delight! Thank you so much for the recipe. The lemonade turned out to be awesome, well, just very, very much!
Even the son, who had never drunk anything except purchased drinks in principle, blew out a jug and asked the recipe
nila
Seberia, Lena, and thank you for such a wonderful review! I will be glad together with you! It's great that your son changed his preferences and drank this healthy drink :)))))

nila, Nelya, yummy
I poured everything into boiling water at once, only as it boiled, then turned it off. It is worth insisting.
Basil's husband ... brrrr .. he can't stand it.
And then I liked it very much
Thank you!
Karamelko
Nice tasty "lemonade" or basilinade? I do it all the time, while the summer is going with a bang. 🍷
Nelya, thanks for the recipe!
nila
lettohka ttt, Natasha! The main thing is that she has gathered! And it doesn't matter how-immediately or in a year! Now I have tried it and you will continue to cook this drink! Anise is not necessary if it is not there! You can also add cardamom! And you can have some kind of berry, you added a peach and you liked it
fedorovna1, Tatyana ! Oh, I haven’t tasted hot in such heat! Although it's hot with us, it's cool with you
OlgaGera, Olga! So in this drink there is a barely noticeable taste from basil, who does not know, so immediately and will not guess what it is from!
It's great that a husband who doesn't recognize basil didn't guess it in this drink!
Karamelko, Alyona ! It doesn't matter what you call it, the main thing is to like it! We need to cook ourselves, otherwise we have been hitting more kvass lately

Nelya, Today it cooled down and became even tastier, infused. My husband also fuked yesterday, and today he drank with pleasure. Thank you!
lana light
nila, Nelya, I've been cooking for the third year already, very tasty! It's already hot here, in the shade 25 * C.
Frozen purple basil has been in the freezer since last year, I throw it right with the twigs. There was no lemon yesterday. Made from orange, adding a little citric acid. Fine!
Cooked in Stebik, Soup mode 1 min for 0.7. 30 minutes to a boil, 1 minute boils, 10-15 minutes bleeds (at the end, I helped to manually set the pressure a little). I put the pan in a bowl of cold water, another 15-20 minutes. In short, 1 hour and you can taste it!
What a cool recipe! Fast! Delicious! Unusual! Thanks for the recipe !!!
lettohka ttt
nila, Nelechka, thank you again, very tasty drink! I cook it all year round! Frozen in bags. Thank you very much for the recipe! Today it goes with pies)

Nelya, I, too, with gratitude, yesterday accidentally stumbled upon a recipe, I did not even read the comments - I will definitely cook it, but today I fished out basil and lemon from the freezer, as if I had specially frozen it for such an occasion. I didn't cook it, poured it with boiling water, it was as if the color was too much potassium permanganate, such a rich color is my mother dear, then she threw in a lemon and ... beauty. Warm - I felt the taste of basil, and cold - I like tea with lemon balm.Next time I will try to add anise, Today I specially scratched for fresh in Lenta ... for the first time it was not there. Here it is, the bottle is slightly fogged from the refrigerator, it's hot ...A drink that tastes better than any lemonade
Palych
nila, Hi. Don't cut the skin off the lemon, won't it taste bitter? And if you replace it with acid, then how much, tea? There is also St. mint, did you add? If so, how much? And the bunch is a mystery to me, right now I'll take a picture, you will say not a little / a lot.

fedorovna1, Tatyana, of course, my husband liked the cold drink more, cold from the refrigerator, because it is still more of a summer drink.
lana light, Sveta, you are right to use frozen basil if there is no fresh one. You can even use dried. There is not much difference.
lettohka ttt, Nataliawhat a rosy drink! And even with ruddy pies!
Svetlana777, Svetlana, you also have a very saturated color. Glad that another fan of the basil drink has appeared!
Palych, Igor, I'm sorry, but I just went to the forum and saw your questions. It's probably too late, but I'll try to answer. Do not remove the skin from the lemon, it will not taste bitter. Just wash well with a wax brush. It is possible with lemon, but with lemon it is all the healthier. I added mint, and also added lemon balm. Made from green basil. This is not for everybody. To taste, I added a couple of twigs. And you can throw a bunch of it all, and if you want to stretch it twice, then throw in half. Here, too, to taste, and the amount of basil affects the saturation of the drink.

The recipe has been in the bookmarks for a long time, but I only cooked it yesterday, well, very tasty, I made a 2l charm in a jug, but I already drank a glass all over and got the rest of my son, I wrote it down: he said very tasty and came up with the name "basilio"
Nelya, thanks for the recipe. : rose I will cook constantly, only increase the portion, 2l is not enough for us
nila
August 68, Ludmila, thanks for the report! It is very pleasant that the drink came to your taste!
Special greetings to my son! Tell me that I really liked its name
