1
Prepare the Simple Syrup
In a small pot, combine equal parts sugar and water (1 cup each). Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a large pitcher, combine the fresh basil leaves and lime juice. Muddle gently to release the basil's flavor.
3
Add the Simple Syrup
Pour in the cooled simple syrup and stir well to combine.
4
Add Club Soda
Slowly add the club soda to the pitcher, stirring gently to mix without losing too much carbonation.
5
Serve
Pour the mixture into glasses filled with ice. Garnish each glass with a lime wedge and a sprig of basil before serving.
