is the drink of the season. it will probably be stocked in my fridge for the rest of the summer (is it summer yet?). perhaps i should keep a tally of how many lemons i use making basil lemonade.
to date: 21 lemons
this morning i served an older gentleman who was getting coffee for his wife. he was pretty sweet and he babbled on about his diabetes and how he wasn't allowed to drink coffee as a child and that his whole family drinks coffee but he doesn't. he had a few teeth, but not many. an old neighbor spotted him while he was making the coffee and when he realized who the person was, he said, "You look radiant!"
sometimes i wish i were an old man so i could say things like that to people. it was really sweet. it was genuine and precious.

But how does one make basil lemonade? Is the basil a garnish or an ingredient?
Ingredient... see most recent post. :)
