Method
Preparation of Fruit
Prepare the Watermelon
Cut the fresh watermelon into chunks and remove the seeds. Measure out 4 cups of watermelon chunks and place them in a blender.
Prepare the Strawberries
Wash the fresh strawberries thoroughly, hull them, and measure out 2 cups. Add the strawberries to the blender with the watermelon.
Juice the Limes
Squeeze fresh limes to extract 1 cup of juice. Pour the lime juice into the blender.
Blending and Mixing
Blend the Ingredients
Blend the watermelon, strawberries, and lime juice on high speed until smooth and well combined.
Strain the Mixture
If desired, strain the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove pulp. This step is optional but results in a smoother drink.
Combine with Water and Sweetener
In a large pitcher, combine the strained mixture with 4 cups of cold water and 1 cup of agave syrup. Stir well to dissolve the syrup completely.
Serving
Chill and Serve
Refrigerate the aguas frescas for at least 1 hour to chill. Serve over ice in glasses and garnish with mint leaves and lime slices if desired.
