Agua Fresca

 

 

1 large cantaloupe or half a watermelon, seeded and

diced (about 3 cups)

1 1/2 cups water

2 to 4 tablespoons sugar

2 to 3 limes, juiced

 

This and other similar fruit drinks, which translate

literally as “fresh water,” are served all over Mexico

and they’re a cinch to replicate at home. The key is

to strain the pulpy fruit to make a clearer liquid.

Instead of melon, you could use strawberries,

pineapple, or mango…any fruit that is soft enough to

puree.

 

Puree cantaloupe and pour through a fine sieve to

eliminate pulp. In a pitcher, mix strained fruit puree

with water and season with sugar and lime juice, to

taste.

 

Yield: about 1 quart, 3 to 4 servings

Prep Time: 15 minutes
