I'm not a big fan of basil, but I actually really enjoyed this agua fresca. The strawberry flavor is really strong, so the basil doesn't overpower it.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover strawberries. I always have a bunch of strawberries in my fridge, so this is a great way to use them up before they go bad.
