12. After the droplets are placed, again sprinkle some icing sugar on the drops.

13. Within 2 to 3 minutes, those droplets will turn hard and become like a candy.

Store them in a dry and cool place in some airtight jar along with some of the icing sugar, so that candies shouldn’t stick to each other.

NOTES

  1. If you don’t have Basil leaves, then only take 1/2 Cup of water and begin the process from step 6.
  2. Use fresh ginger juice in case of non availability of ginger powder.
  3. The substitute of icing sugar is powdered sugar. Just grind some sugar in a grinder and use accordingly.
  4. Silicone sheet gives better results than butter paper but no worry in case your don’t have such sheet. We too don’t have silicon sheet but butter paper went fine but it must be greased.
