Coconut Lime Agua Fresca

It was such a simple drink, yet it was bursting with flavor and freshness.

Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Start by juicing your limes. I usually roll them on the countertop first to get the juices flowing.
- 2
In a large pitcher, combine the coconut water, freshly squeezed lime juice, and agave syrup.
- 3
Stir the mixture well until the agave syrup is fully dissolved. You can taste it here and adjust the sweetness if you like.
- 4
If you’re using mint, gently muddle the mint leaves in the bottom of the pitcher to release their oils before adding the coconut-lime mixture.
- 5
Chill the agua fresca in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
- 6
Serve it over ice, garnished with additional mint leaves or lime wedges if you’re feeling fancy!
