Infusing Your Drinks
Lisette Fee
As you know I love herbs and they have such universal properties, from oils to incense. And lately I've been using my herbs for infusing my water, wine and teas.
On my Mother's Day I received a fantastic gift from my friend; little rubber molds that you can place herbs in; of course you can also use your ice cube trays.
Mint and lavender infused drinks
So here are several of my favorite herbs and recipes for infusing your summer drinks!
1. Pineapple sage - my friend and customer Traci Davis introduced me to this yummy herb. Add this to your malibu bay breezes or your citrusy drinks.
2. Mint - this beloved herb really goes well with anything. I love grinding it and adding it to hot or cold chocolate drinks.
3. Lavender - not only is it my favorite color but also my favorite herb. Lavender loves being paired with vanilla and this works great in teas as well as iced drinks with vodka or rum.
4. Basil - one of my favorite drinks from local Greenville restaurant the Scullery is their lemon basil drink, seltzer, simple syrup, lemon and basil - it's SO refreshing!
There are endless possibilities to the combinations you can make with your herbs and drinks and it's low calorie, very good for your health and savory. I hope you enjoyed this post and thanks for reading!
PS - In every Eilisain jewelry order I include a spring of lavender. Use this to burn in your home for a calming sense.
