    Strawberry Agua Fresca

    Published: Mar 2, 2017 · Modified: Mar 12, 2021 by Kelly Stilwell · This post may contain affiliate links 2 Comments

    Strawberry Agua Fresca in a glass with strawberries, lime, and lemon with a red checked napkin.

    This Strawberry Agua Fresca is the perfect drink to cool you off on a hot day. It may still be pretty cold where you, are but here in Florida, it's strawberry season!

    The Florida Strawberry Festival is in March, and that means strawberries are ripe and ready for recipes! Believe it or not, temperatures are in the low to mid 80's, and it's the beginning of March!

    I remember many February and even March snowstorms when I lived in Maryland. I have to tell you, moving to Florida was the best decision we've ever made. The only thing I'm shoveling is sand to make sandcastles!

    This Strawberry Aqua Fresca is the perfect drink to cool you off on a hot day. It may still be pretty cold where you are but here in Florida, it's strawberry season!

    Why This Recipe Works

    When it's hot and humid here, there's nothing better than an icy cold drink. We just got back from Mexico where Agua Fresca is a popular fruity drink.

    It's also pretty healthy except for the sugar, which you can replace with your favorite low-cal sweetener if you're watching your weight. Simply eliminate the sugar and sweeten to taste with your favorite sugar substitute. (I love Stevia!)

    Gather these ingredients and make a big batch to serve at your next gathering. It's so delicious, your friends will be asking for the recipe!

    What You Need To Make It

    Servings size: 2 8oz glasses

    10 large juicy strawberries, stems removed and sliced into quarters
    4 cups cold water
    2 cups ice
    ¼ cup sugar
    1 Lime juiced
    ½ Lemon juiced
    2 Lime wheels for decoration

    This Strawberry Aqua Fresca is the perfect drink to cool you off on a hot day. It may still be pretty cold where you are but here in Florida, it's strawberry season!

    How to Make It

    This Strawberry Aqua Fresca is the perfect drink to cool you off on a hot day. It may still be pretty cold where you are but here in Florida, it's strawberry season!

    Wash and clean your strawberries and remove the stems and slice into quarters.

    Place your strawberries into a blender.


    Add ¼ cup of sugar, lime juice, lemon juice, ice, and the cold water to the blender.
    Blend on high for about 30-40 seconds or until the ice is crushed and the strawberries are almost smooth.
    Garnish with a lime and a fresh berry.

    How easy is that? Enjoy!
