What’s an agua fresca, you ask? Aguas frescas are as light, refreshing and beautiful as they are delicious. An agua fresca is made by combining fresh fruit, citrus and a little sweetener with cold water and served over ice. Aguas frescas, translated literally from Spanish to “fresh waters”, are popular all over Mexico and Central America. Over at FruitStand, we love packing our aguas frescas with strawberry guava-va-voom!
