Here's how I grow basil in the hot Temecula sun. This paper umbrella shades the basil enough to protect it from hot burning rays. All I add is water and plant food when needed. Last week our temperatures soared to above 100 F plus, but my basil survived. Beautiful basil but in truth, we're not big basil eaters, although I have already made pesto from this crop.
