Watermelon Agua Fresca Smoothie
Traditionally, authentic agua frescas are made without blenders by simply mashing fruit with a fork or masher before adding water. We've taken the liberty of using a blender for an ultra-light, refreshing rendition of this traditional Mexican drink. In the spring and summer, we use fresh strawberries and a few ice cubes in lieu of the frozen ones for ultimate freshness.

Servings: Serves 2 (makes about 2 1/2 cups)
Ingredients
  • 3 cups diced seeded watermelon , chilled
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries
  • 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Agave nectar (optional)
Directions
Combine the watermelon, strawberries, lemon juice, and salt in a blender. Blend until smooth. Sweeten with agave nectar, if you like.
