This is a delicious green smoothie with fruit and ginger!

LIGHTER than fruit juice, much more fun and flavorful than water, agua fresca is, quite simply, a very watery version of juice. To look at it another way, it’s a wonderfully value-added version of water. Fresca translates as both “fresh” and “cool,” and the drink is both. This Mexican specialty can be made from seeds, like tamarind, or even some grains but given that it’s midsummer I’m sticking with fruit: any melon (including papaya and the melon-related cucumber), pineapple or any stone fruit.
