This cantaloupe agua fresca tastes like the most wonderful fresh melon water.
Ingredients
1 cantaloupe (3.5 pounds, or 4 cups chopped fruit)
1.5 cups cold water
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice (or lime juice)
a few sprigs of fresh mint (or basil)
ice
Instructions
Cut the cantaloupe up by first cutting in half, then into quarters, and cut the flesh away from the rind.
Cut into chunks and place into a blender. Blend until fully pureed, then strain the puree through a fine mesh strainer to collect the juice.
Pour the juice into a pitcher and add the water, fresh lemon juice, and mint. Refrigerate for at least one hour so it’s thoroughly chilled and the flavors are melded.
Pour over ice and enjoy.
