Description

This refreshing and simple drink was made for sunny days! Watermelon Mint Lime Agua Fresca is extremely easy to make with bright flavors. Just blend, pour, and sip away!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 8 cups cubed watermelon (from one medium seedless watermelon)
  • 3 cups filtered water
  • 2 limes, juiced (plus more for garnish)
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • fresh mint for serving/garnish
  • 4 cups ice for pitcher

Instructions

  1. Add cubed watermelon, fresh lime juice, maple syrup and water to a high speed blender.  Puree until smooth (about 20 seconds).  
  2. Pour mixture through a nut-milk bag (or fine mesh strainer) unto a large bowl with a pour spout.  
  3. Pour the strained mixture into a pitcher filled with 4 cups ice cubes and fresh mint leaves.  
  4. When serving, pour overtop glasses filled with ice cubes.  Garnish the glasses with fresh mint leaves and lime wedges.  You can also use frozen watermelon cubes in place of ice if desired!

Notes

  • For a sparkly twist, replace 2-3 cups of water with watermelon and/or lime sparkling water.  Instead of adding in the blender add to the mixture after it has been strained.  Stir well before serving.
  • For best results use a nut-milk bag instead of a fine mesh strainer.  It is faster and does a better job.
