Strawberry-Mint Agua Fresca |
STRAWBERRY-MINT AGUA FRESCA RECIPE
INGREDIENTS:
• 1 Basket Strawberries
• 1 Handful Mint Leaves
• 2-4 TBSP Brown Sugar (optional)
• Pinch of Salt
• 10-12 Cups Water
METHOD:
1. Wash and stem strawberries. Wash a small bunch of mint and pick leaves off until you have a handful of mint leaves.
2. Add Strawberries and 2 Cups water to blender. Blend for about 2 minutes until smooth.
3. Add mint leaves, salt and brown sugar. Blend for about another 30 seconds. NOTE: Brown sugar is optional. Only if your berries are a bit tart or if you like things on the sweeter side. You of course can also substitute sweeteners like regular sugar, honey or agave nectar.
4. Pour mixture into a large pitcher. Stir in 8-10 cups of water. NOTE: You can add more water if you like it on the lighter side. You can also strain the mixture before you pour it into the pitcher. I prefer to have all the bits and pieces.
5. Serve cold over ice with mint garnish. It's also good with a squeeze of lime. It's even better with some tequila or vodka!
PROVECHO!
