watermelon agua fresca
Print recipe
Ingredients
- 1/4 watermelon, rind removed & chopped
- 1 c. water
- 4-5 sprigs fresh mint leaves
Note
I lived with my aunt & uncle for a summer when they lived in Mexico and my aunt would make agua fresca every day with melon, papaya, oranges, etc. It was so tasty, so I decided to make my own with some leftover watermelon we had. YUM! Perfect to cool down on a hot day.
Directions
| 1. | Remove rind from watermelon and chop into uniform pieces | |
| 2. | Put melon in blender with water and mint leaves; blend well. If you want your agua fresca super cold, add a few ice cubes or refrigerate the watermelon beforehand. | |
| 3. | Strain, or leave pulp in if you like pulp in your fruit beverages. | |
| 4. | Enjoy on a hot summer day! |
