Honeydew agua fresca delivers an incredibly sweet and delicate flavor that refreshes you from the very first sip. Plus, you only need 4 ingredients and less than 15 minutes to make it at home
📝 Ingredients
- 1 ripe honeydew melon
- 1/2 cup sugar or sweetener of choice
- 2-3 fresh spearmint sprigs
- 8 cups cold water
- Ice (optional)
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1--- Prepare the Melon ---
- 2Wash the melon thoroughly, dry it, and place it on your cutting board.
- 3Carefully cut the melon in half and remove all the seeds with a spoon.
- 4Using your knife, peel each half to remove all the flesh.
- 5--- Blend the Fruit ---
- 6Add the chopped melon flesh, sugar, and 3-4 cups of water to your blender. Blend until everything is perfectly smooth.
- 7The sweetness level depends on your personal taste. Since honeydew is naturally very sweet, I suggest tasting it before adding more sugar.
- 8You can also use other sweeteners like honey, agave syrup, stevia, or whatever you prefer.
- 9Transfer to a large pitcher, add the remaining water, stir well, and adjust sweetness if needed.
- 10--- Chill and Serve ---
- 11I recommend refrigerating until ready to serve. But if you want to drink it immediately, serve it over plenty of ice.
- 12Garnish with a fresh spearmint sprig or a small piece of melon on the rim of the glass.
