Shiso Juice

At the temple, they make this really yummie juice from purple shiso:

1kg purple shiso leaf (Japanese herb...kinda like Basil)
1 cup (110 g) sugar
1/2 cup honey
3/4 cup lemon juice
3 cup water

1) Wash the leaves and drain.
2) boil water, cook leaves in small batches until they turn green
3) remove leaves
4) squeeze the juice out of the cooked leaves
5) put sugar and honey into the hot juice and dissolve
6) cool down and add lemon juice
7) store in sterilized bottle

This makes a concentrated syrup you can dillute to make yummie juice for tea time! yeah!!
