basil seed drink yumm!!!

[HeidiE]

this is an awesome filling drink you can have on the nuts and seeds rung
sweet basil seeds are found in any Asian Market they rehydrate to what my kids used to call "frog egg drink" ...Vietnamese friends have told me this is a very "cooling" herb ..it is full of nutrition and very low carb (dont have numbers sorry)
try it

basil seed drink
1-2 packets of sweetener
2 cups of water
squeeze of lemon juice
4 tsps of basil seeds

mix together well and in about three minutes you have this very strange but yummy drink enjoy!!!

Ooooh, this does sound strangely yummy.

My friend and I recently visited an Asian market and are planning on visiting another she found before long. I'm going to have to find those basil seeds!

Thanks for the recipe.

Basil seeds are tiny, tiny, tiny!

I wonder if you can sprout those seeds like mung beans or alfalfa?
