Summer is here let's stay hydrated

Yes the first day of summer is here and here's a healthy addition to your summer spa treatments :
Summer Solstice Sparkler
Try this and serve it at your summer spa parties in a pretty pitcher.
Ingredients
1 fresh basil leaf, chopped
6 fresh mint leaves
2 lemon twists
2 orange wedges
1/4 English cucumber, seeded and diced, very cold
Ice cubes
250 ml bottle sparkling water

Directions
Put the basil, mint, lemon, orange and cucumber in a cocktail shaker. Add the ice, cover, and shake vigorously, or stir, until combined and chilled, about 30 seconds. (In general, the drink is ready when the shaker mists up.) Pour into a chilled Collins glass and top with the sparkling sake. Drop in a pair of chopsticks to pick out the cucumber and oranges, if desired.
