Agua Fresca Preparation

This and other similar fruit drinks, which translate literally as freshwater, 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. Prep Time: 15 minutes CookTime:
