Kumquat Basil Sparkler
The sweet, sour and tangy combination of kumquats — they’re barely larger than an olive — make for a refreshing Kumquat Basil Sparkler mocktail when combined with lime juice, fresh basil and sparkling water.
Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 8 kumquats cut in half
- 1 large lime halved

- 10 ounces sparkling water I used Topo Chico.
