India's Basil Tea image

This recipe had been submitted for play in ZWT8 - India and was found on Indian Food Forever. Now, this sounds good. I often am left wondering what I'm going to do with all the basil growing in the garden. What a great use for it. Please note: Cooking time is for steeping of the tea.
