Derived from the ingredient records. The dry seeds absorb almost all of the soaking water into their own gel coat, so unlike a steeped spice the water is not discarded and both lines carry through into the Form. Mass and volume are summed over the two lines rather than measured in a bottle, with a small allowance for water that never gets taken up, so density is marked estimated. No sugar figure is claimed: the dry seed's own proxy record carries none, and diluting an absent figure would only manufacture a false precision.

    Stir the 15 g dried basil seeds into the 120 ml water and leave to soak until each seed swells into its own translucent gel coat.

The amounts above are the batch this recipe makes, not a portion of it, and they do not scale with any drink count, because a preparation is made once and then measured out of.
