agua frescas
Fruity Latin refreshments
Agua frescas are Mexican beverages made by blending fruit, seeds, or flowers with water and sugar.
Common varieties include horchata (rice and cinnamon), Jamaica (hibiscus), and tamarindo (tamarind), along with fresh fruit versions like watermelon or cantaloupe.
They're served cold, often from large glass jars at taquerias and street vendors: I'll have a large horchata with my tacos.
