My obsession for any kind of drink with bubbles runs deep. It’s refreshing, festive and adds a bit of sparkle to just about everything! This Strawberry Basil Iced Tea Sparkler is my current bubbly obsession!
Made with Gold Peak Unsweetened Tea, farmers market fresh strawberries, basil and a touch of agave nectar, it’s the perfect summer drink for any guests of any age! It would also pair perfectly with that Sweet Tea BBQ Chicken (link) that I posted last month! #justsayin 
You can jazz this one up a bit too! I made it with sparkling water or club soda… but you could use your favorite flavored sparkling water if you wanted to get extra fancy! A lemon or lime sparkling water would be delish!
