Honeydew & Lime Agua Fresca | Recipes to Nourish 

Agua Frescas are wonderful summertime drinks. 

Big Love grew up having these traditional Mexican “fresh waters”, his favorites – Horchata and Honeydew.
 
I surprised him with my hydrating Agua Fresca version after he got home from a long day at work. To help hydrate, I add coconut water instead of water – this is totally optional, but so delicious. I also use raw honey instead of the traditional refined sugar.

Honeydew Lime Agua Fresca {Honey Sweetened + Coconut Water}

Yield: 4 servings
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 medium size honeydew melon, cubed/chunked
  • 2 cups cold coconut water* or filtered water
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • ¼ cup raw honey (I use local raw creamed clover)
  • Ice from filtered water

Instructions

  1. Wash the outside of the honeydew melon. Cut in half and remove seeds. My method for cutting honeydew - Cut into slices. Cut chunks into the flesh and use knife to slice underneath right above the rind leaving you with chunks of melon. You can cut this however you want, just remove the melon from the rind.
  2. Add honeydew chunks, coconut water, lime juice and honey to the blender. Blend until pureed and no chunks remain.
  3. Strain through a fine mesh strainer/sieve and discard solids.
  4. Serve chilled over ice.

Notes

Storage: Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
