Purple Basil Lemon Tea: A Delicious, Budget-Friendly Immune Booster

1. Boil the Water: Start by bringing the water to a boil in a small saucepan.
2. Add Purple Basil: Once boiling, add the purple basil leaves to the pot and reduce the heat. Let it simmer gently for about 5-7 minutes. This allows the essential oils and flavors of the basil to infuse the water.
3. Add Lemon and Seasonings: After simmering, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the fresh lemon juice. Add a pinch of black pepper to boost nutrient absorption and, if desired, a teaspoon of honey to sweeten.
4. Serve: Strain the tea into cups, ensuring no leaves remain. Serve warm for a comforting and healthful drink.
