Aguas Frescas

Here's something refreshing for summer! If you've ever had the fruit drinks from Mango's on Mesa's Main Street, you will love this recipe. I usually don't go out and buy fruit specifically for this but the other day I had a big container of cut up cantaloupe in the fridge that needed to be used up. Woohoo!



Aguas Frescas

Blend Together:
1 C. Ice
2 C. Fruit
1/4 C. Sugar (*or more, to taste)
1 T. Fresh Lime Juice (optional)
2 C. Cold Water

Strain out pulp and serve over more ice. Makes about 1 quart or 4 servings. *The sugar ratio of this recipe works well for cantaloupe but when we tried watermelon we needed more sugar.
