Yield 4 drinks

Number Of Ingredients 3

Ingredients

2 cups dry white wine, chilled
12 basil leaves, roughly shredded
3 mint leaves (or another soft herb, or additional basil)

Steps:

Combine wine and herbs. Working in batches, pour mixture into the bottle of a carbonator, filling it not more than 1/2 full (this will give the mixture room to foam). Charge with CO2 until very fizzy.
Very slowly, as if opening a bottle of soda, release the bottle from the carbonator. Serve immediately, or cover tightly and chill. Serve over ice or straight up.
