My sister Kenzie & I are addicted to agua frescas when we're together. She came to visit us for her birthday a couple of weekends ago and one of the places I took her is to Pros Ranch Market where they make 10 or so different flavors of fresh agua frescas everyday.
Years ago, I introduced her to a place in Abilene, TX called Mary's where they make their agua frescas daily as well. I'll never forget the time she asked them how they made agua frescas and the lady laughed in her face.
I'm happy I have found and can share a great recipe for agua fresca.
Cantaloupe and watermelon are my personal favorites. Today I made honey dew.

I needed this recipe. I have been craving flavored drinks lately, and nothing has been hitting the spot. That sounds perfect.
