Ingredients

  • 8 cups prepared ripe fruit (or 6 cups for dense fruit like mangoes)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/3 to 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
  • Water, to thin as needed
  • Fresh mint or other herbs, for garnish (optional)

Method

  1. Place the prepared ripe fruit into a blender and blend until completely smooth.

  2. Strain the blended fruit through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove any unblended pieces.

  3. Add the sugar and fresh lime juice to the pitcher.

  4. Stir in water until the agua fresca reaches a thin, refreshing consistency.

    It should not be thick like a smoothie.

  5. Taste and adjust the sugar or lime juice if needed.

  6. Serve over ice, garnished with fresh mint or herbs if desired.
