This was a great recipe! I used it to make popsicles and they were a hit with my kids.

I'm not a huge fan of basil, but I thought this recipe was still pretty good. The lemon flavor was strong enough to balance out the basil.

This was a great way to use up some fresh basil that I had on hand. The ice was refreshing and flavorful.

This was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. I would recommend using less honey next time.

This is a great recipe! I've made it several times now and it always turns out great. The basil and lemon flavors are a perfect combination.

This was so refreshing and delicious! I used fresh basil from my garden and it really made the dish. The lemon added a nice tartness that balanced out the sweetness of the honey. I will definitely be making this again!
