I like playing dress up. I like drinking icy cold (crushed ice, not cubed) water.
So merging the two just makes sense.
Here are a few of my most-loved choices!
1. Mint & Rose water. Add just a few petals from new rose blooms
and several sprigs of mint. There's just a slight hint of rose mingled
with the mint, that makes a perfect blend. It'll be a win-win.
2. Sweet Basil & Blackberries. Add 3-4 fresh or frozen blackberries
and 3-4 sprigs of sweet basil. On the rim of the glass, add a tiny bit
of large grain sugar, if you need a tad more sweet. Colored sugar would
be pretty too. I usually find myself adding more sweet basil
because it's just that fragrant.
3. Variegated Pink Lemons + Thyme. A whisper (a whisper?) of pink lemonade
mixed with 1-2 fresh thyme stems. So wonderful, you're totally going to
impress your mother-in-law at your next dinner soiree. Hoo-ray!
