Ingredients
Honey Simple Syrup
- ¾ cup honey or sub with sweetener of choice
- 1 cup water
Agua Fresca
- 1 medium cucumber English or regular
- 3 cups pineapple chopped, ripe, fresh
- 4 cups water cold, filtered, divided
- honey simple syrup as needed
- 1 lime
- ice for serving
Instructions
Honey Simple Syrup
- In a small saucepan, combine the honey with one cup of water.
- Heat over medium-low, stirring occasionally, just until the honey fully dissolves. Do not bring to a boil.
- As soon as the honey dissolves, remove from heat and let cool completely.
Agua Fresca
- Partially peel the cucumber, leaving some of the peel on for added nutrients. Chop into chunks.
- Add 2 cups of water, pineapple, cucumber and juice from the lime to a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
- If you prefer a smoother drink, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher. This is usually not necessary, especially if using a high-powered blender.
- Stir in the remaining 2 cups of water.
- Taste the agua fresca, if the pineapple was sweet enough, you may not need additional sweetener. If needed, stir in honey simple syrup 1 tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired sweetness.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour until cold or serve immediately over ice.
