4 sliced strawberries 

4-6 raspberries or black berries 

4 fresh basil leaves

SUNSET DREAM – like dancing under sprinklers or picnicking in an orchard alley, this classic combo will bring back your favourite summer memories. 

2 sliced oranges 

2 tablespoons of vanilla 

4 cups of water 

 

METHOD
