Basil Simple Syrup
A deliciously infused syrup - made simple!
To make basil simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a small saucepan.
Heat until the sugar dissolves, and then stir in a good handful of basil.
Remove from heat. Let it steep for about 30 minutes, strain and store in the fridge.
