Agua Fresca


Very refreshing drink, very easy to make. It works just as well with cantaloupe or honey dew melons. I've made this recipe with many different types of melon with great results. The grocery store i use has a yearly melon sale in the summer. You can try and buy several types of melons that you normally couldn't get in this area of wisconsin. The santa claus melon has a very mild flavor and light color. I like to use my lalane juicer.

Steps


Mash the melon.
If using a blender , add just enough water to blend into a coarse pulp.
Put the pulp in a pitcher.
Add the water and the sugar.
Stir vigorously to dissolve the sweetener.
Serve chilled.
