- SWEETENER: Instead of Agave syrup, you can substitute with pure maple syrup or organic cane sugar as a syrup (sugar + water boiled over the stove top).
- PINEAPPLE JUICE: Instead of using organic pineapple juice, you can always substitute with lemon or orange juice for a slight change or blend sliced pineapples with ½ cup of water until fully smooth.
- BASIL: Instead of basil leaves, you can substitute with mint leaves or rosemary leaves.
