• 2 ripe kiwis, peeled and chopped
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2-3 lemons)
• 3 tbsp honey or agave syrup
• 4 cups cold water
• A handful of fresh basil leaves, torn gently
• Ice cubes
• Optional: kiwi slices and lemon wedges for garnish

1. In a blender, combine the chopped kiwis, fresh lemon juice, and honey. Blend until smooth, enjoying the vibrant green puree and citrusy aroma.
2. Pour the kiwi-lemon blend into a large pitcher. Add the cold water, stirring gently to mix well. Take a moment to inhale the mingling scents of sweet kiwi and zesty lemon.
3. Add the torn basil leaves to the pitcher, muddling them gently to release their subtle fragrance into the drink.
4. Fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the Kiwi Lemon Basil Tea over the ice, letting the colors and aromas beautifully combine.
5. Optionally, garnish with kiwi slices and lemon wedges to add a charming touch to each glass.

• For a natural sweetener, replace honey with agave syrup.
• Serve in chilled glasses to enhance the refreshment factor of this drink.
• Add a splash of sparkling water for a fizzy version, perfect for parties or special occasions.

• Refrigerate any leftover drink base in an airtight container for up to 2 days, ensuring you can enjoy it later.
• If fresh basil is unavailable, swap it with fresh mint leaves for an equally delightful twist.
• For a citrus-free version, replace lemon juice with lime juice.

• Serve with light snacks like cucumber sandwiches or fresh fruit platters for a refreshing afternoon treat.
• This tea pairs wonderfully with lemon bars or basil-infused cookies, intensifying the delightful flavors.
