Sip, sip… Ahhhhhhhhhhhh
This was everyone’s reaction when they had this Agua- fresca drink 🍸
Augua- fresca means water cooler/ water drink which is a non alcoholic drink made with more than one fruit/ vegetable, flower or seeds.. This is famous in Mexico.
Together,fresh raw cucumbers, lime/lemon juice, mint leaves, and ginger root create a bright and power-packed flavor, with subtle spicy undertones.
Serve it with lots of ice for a seriously refreshing summer mocktail !
You can make it ahead of time and keep it in the fridge for several days.
