Tips
- Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding sugar if it's not sweet enough, or understanding that if it's too sweet, it becomes your own recipe.
- The lemon and lime are optional but help to balance out and bring out the flavor more.
- This version of Agua Fresca is not traditional but is a personal take on it.
- Serve with ice and water down the base to your liking.
- For an extra kick, add Tajin or cayenne pepper for some heat.
