In a small pot, heat the sugar and water together on medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Allow to cool.

In a blender, add strawberries, basil, lime juice and as much simple syrup as you like. (For a soda-like end result, add all of the simple syrup). Blend until smooth.

Strain through a fine mesh sieve, scraping with a rubber spatula to extract as much liquid as possible, and discard the solids.
