Watermelon aqua fresca

With the temperatures outside way above 30 degrees, aqua fresca comes to rescue! Aguas frescas are cooling down drinks popular especially in Mexico made from a variety of fresh fruit. Today I propose a watermelon version.

You'll need:
a watermelon
lime
fresh mint leaves
ice cubes
brown sugar (optional)

1. Cut the watermeloon into pieces removing all the seeds and put into a bowl/pot.
2. Chop the mint leaves and add to the bowl.
3. Cut the lime into half, cut of a slice for decoration and squeeze the rest into the bowl.
4. Add sugar.
5. Blend.
6. Put in the fridge to cool down.
7. Serve with ice cubes.

Bon appétit!
