Instructions
- Blend all ingredients in a blender until smooth.
- If you like you can strain the agua fresca using a fine mesh sieve but it is not necessary.
- Pour the drink into a pitcher or bottle and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour until cold. You can also serve over ice and garnish with pieces of strawberry.
- Store any leftover agua fresca in a covered container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.

Notes
- If dairy isn't a problem for you, you can use evaporated milk.
- For another dairy version, skip the sweetener and use sweetened condensed milk instead. Start with about ¼ cup and add more as needed for sweetness.
- Use coconut cream instead of Nutpods or coconut milk for an even creamier result. Just note that you may need to add a bit more water if the end result is too thick.
- Nutpods also sells a French vanilla flavor that goes great with this recipe too.

- I prefer to use unrefined sugars, such as monk fruit sweetener, honey, coconut sugar or agave nectar, which are a little less processed and retain more minerals. However, you can use white sugar if you prefer.
