4. Sweeten strawberries with sugar to taste. For each serving, in chilled 16-oz. glass, layer 1/4 c. Rhubarb Syrup, 2 Tbsp. Diced Strawberries, two 1/4-c. scoops ice cream, 1/2 c. Orange Milk, and 2 more Tbsp. Diced Strawberries. Add 1/4 c. seltzer; drizzle with 2 Tbsp. Basil Syrup. Garnish with 1 basil sprig.
