It it hot and humid where you are? Or are you just looking for a fun non alcoholic summer drink? Either way, you are not going to regret making this Watermelon, Strawberry & Mint Aqua Fresca.
I made this drink after purchasing Marcella Kriebel's Comida Latina. The book is nothing like I've ever seen before: each recipe is illustrated and there are pages filled with helpful tips, definitions, and even Spanish names for everyday cookware equipment.
Last week I actually took a watercolor class taught by Marcella!! It was so much fun ;)
Watermelon, Strawberry & Mint Aqua Fresca
Ingredients
1 part watermelon
1 part strawberries
fresh mint
2 parts water
Directions
1. Add everything to a blender and puree till perfectly smooth.
2. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve and refrigerate the clear liquid for at least 30 minutes.
3. Pour the Watermelon, Strawberry & Mint Aqua Fresca into glasses, add a straw and a strawberry as fun decorations and drink!!
I'm looking forward to experimenting with different fruit combinations to make other varieties of aqua fresca!
Two questions for you:
1) What's the latest cookbook you've purchased?
2) What's your favorite flavor of aqua fresca?

That book looks so fun! And the agua fresca would be perfect for the humid weather we've been having. The latest cookbook I purchased was the Meatball Shop Cookbook. And I need to try more agua frescas before I can name a favorite flavor. :)
