Summer in a (very pretty) Glass

Happy Friday, Friends!

I’m pretty sure I could drink this every day. Plus, what’s more refreshing than a lemonade on a very hot summer day? You probably know by now I’m here for the fresh Basil. I swear I have other herbs but this one is by far my favorite.

What makes a drink taste even better? Pretty glasswear! Dragon Glasswear gifted me these beautiful Wave Wine Glasses and I’m in love. They are from the Aura Collection and have an iridescent hue to them. I figured that only a very pretty drink should go in them.

This is absolutely not the last time I’m making this one. But, let me tell you how to make a drink look like this.

what you do:

  1. Boil the water and then add sugar. Stir until sugar dissolves.

  2. Add blueberries and basil and simmer for five minutes.

  3. Strain into bowl so that the solids don’t get mixed into the syrup.

  4. Let cool to room temperature.

This one is fancy (pinky up!) but so easy. Throw everything in a shaker with ice and pour into (pretty) glasses full of ice. Garnish with basil and blueberries! Perfect for a hot day!

Enjoy the weekend Pretties!
