Ingredients

- 1 cup fresh strawberries hulled and sliced
- 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves lightly packed
Notes
Storage: Keep refrigerated in a sealed pitcher for up to 24 hours. After 24 hours, remove the fruit and basil to prevent fermentation. Make-ahead: Prepare the fruit and basil in the pitcher up to 12 hours ahead; add water just before serving for maximum freshness. Variations: Try adding cucumber slices, lemon wedges, or mint leaves. For a sparkling version, replace half the water with club soda just before serving.
