Lighter than juice and way more interesting than sparkling water, agua frescas are next-level refreshers. Here’s a watermelon-grapefruit take on the drink.

Ingredients

  • 7 cups peeled and cubed seedless watermelon

  • 1 cup freshly squeezed grapefruit juice

  • 1 cup water

  • 1/3 cup agave syrup

  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Combine watermelon with grapefruit juice, water, agave syrup and salt in a high-powered blender. Blend until liquified and very smooth. Strain into a large pitcher filled with ice, adding water if needed to adjust for sweetness.
