Strawberry-Basil Cooler

Strawberry-Basil Cooler

Bursting with vibrant colour and fresh spring flavours, this Strawberry-Basil Cooler makes the most of juicy British strawberries—typically in season throughout spring. Rich in vitamin C, they can help support normal immune function. The addition of basil brings a subtle peppery lift that perfectly balances the sweetness of the fruit. By opting for AquaTru purified water instead of alcohol, you’ll keep the drink crisp, clean, and alcohol-free—ensuring no tap-water aftertaste gets in the way of those naturally delicate notes. Including more fruits and herbs aligns with the EFSA guidance on a plant-rich diet that supports overall well-being. Enjoy it at garden parties, picnics, or whenever you crave a refreshingly light beverage.
