Agua Fresca

Ingredients

  • 20 oz (about 4 cups) chopped small fruit recommend seedless watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew or pineapple
  • 1 1/2 cups cold water
  • 2 Tbsp sugar or honey, or to taste
  • 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 2 cups ice

Instructions

  • Add cubed fruit, water, sugar and lime juice to a blender.
  • Cover with lid and blend until well pureed.
  • Pour mixture through a sieve into a pitcher or bowl with a spout (I found it less messy and quickest to work with a bowl and a large sieve vs a pitcher).
  • Add ice to individual glasses. Pour strained mixture over ice and serve cold
