We've substituted ruby-colored purple basil for the traditional mint in this Cuban cocktail. Look for purple basil (also called opal basil) at gourmet or farmers' markets.

PURPLE BASIL PESTO
While stalking the web for a recipe to use my bushels of purple basil, I came across this wonderful recipe. Please tell me how you make it your own! The Farmgirl Fare site where I found the recips does state "Except for the fact that purple basil isn't as pretty as the green and does make a rather oddly colored pesto, I would probably quit growing the green stuff altogether. Mixing a few green leaves into the pesto does help brighten it up a bit."
