Mine involves blending a bunch of green leaves (spinach, kale, cos), an apple, a cucumber, then adding a massive squeeze of lime and a handful of mint leaves. It's totally delicious and healthy, but maybe not quite as exciting as yours!!<br />I will have to try adding some basil sometime!<br />xoJess @ Sparrow + Seahttp://www.sparrowandsea.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1452621549434169941.post-72250192974702859672012-07-12T14:45:01.978-07:002012-07-12T14:45:01.978-07:003 cups was just what I happened to toss into the g...3 cups was just what I happened to toss into the glass measuring cup as I was picking (all the recipes I found mentioned sprigs or leaves and I never know how to judge that - I don't know what size they're talking about), but I think it ended up being the right amount. I think when the herbs are getting strained out you end up needing more than you think you might, because all that's left behind are the aromatic oils. <br /><br />Gin and basil sounds really tempting right now ...Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06819528155575569595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1452621549434169941.post-44306574573756282512012-07-12T14:42:02.007-07:002012-07-12T14:42:02.007-07:00We made them for a Saturday afternoon party and th...We made them for a Saturday afternoon party and then drank the leftovers a couple days later and they were perfectly fine! The only thing I would recommend is waiting to add the sparkling water until shortly before serving.
