Possibly one of the most revered herbs around the world, basil brings a delicious freshness to everything, and when combined with strawberries and peaches, it is pure heaven.

The flavour of this classic herb brings out the delicious sweetness of the fruit and is sure to put a smile on your face long after the summer produce is gone.

Oh, and by the way, it is an excellent anti-inflammatory and is great for the heart too.
