STRAWBERRY AGUA FRESCA RECIPE - LOW-CHOLESTEROL.FOOD.COM
From Cooking Light magazine. Spanish for "fresh water", agua fresca is a refreshing, fruit-infused drink that is served throughout Mexico. Depending on the ripeness of the berries, adjust the amount of sugar for desired sweetness. Frozen strawberries would be fine in this. I like this with 2-3 times the water or seltzer water for a thinner drink. I also increase the sugar.

SPIKED VODKA STRAWBERRY AGUA FRESCA RECIPE | CHEFDEHOME.COM
Sharing today, a refreshing Red White and Blue theme, 4th of July party cocktail made with fresh juicy strawberries, sugar, splash of lime juice and punch of premium quality Vodka. Call it Spiked Strawberry Agua Fresca or Strawberry Fresca Cocktail, these all names sum up to refreshing and colorful glass of fruity cocktail that will make any party extra-special!
Just 5 simple ingredients - Vodka, strawberries, sugar, lime and water! And this cliche-proof cocktail can help you ditch all canned party-drinks!
Oh, and look at the color!! Isn't gorgeous?! Refreshing?! :-)
Friends, when I'm hosting a summer party, I serve lots and lots of quick and fresh dishes in party menu. I'm sure you know, a couple of salads always hit the party buffet. :) Another party must-have? A big pitcher of Cocktail! For flavor, I love to serve unique and refreshing cocktails that are brightened with sweetness of juicy summer fruits and clean good quality alcohols such as Vodka!
For Vodka, my first choice is always SVEDKA Vodka. Why? Well, because SVEDKA is high-quality premium imported vodka with a affordable price-tag! What else would I want?! So, for today's party cocktail, I bought Party Edition of Star and Stripes SVEDKA Vodka!
In my parties, my guests deserve a premium quality cocktail! You know, a party is as good as it's drinks and appetizers. So, I never compromise in quality for these two "guest-pleasers"!
Since I started serving Agua Fresca (Mexican fruit water) in my parties, no one wants anything else! Really, the fresh summer fruits and power punch of Vodka makes everyone so happy.... This combo is like I have found a "success formula" to impress my guests!
What I love most about Agua Fresca is the clean taste, natural ingredients.. such as Strawberry, sugar and lime juice for this Strawberry Agua Fresca... then refreshing splash of Vodka translates it to a perfect Summer Drink!
Instead of buying huge containers of bottled alcohol beverages.. I stick with fresh fruits and a bottle of Vodka. This also gives me opportunity to make party playful and entertaining! You know, everyone knows martini-mix sold in local store...but a homemade drink such as Strawberry Fresca makes gathering feel special!
It appears as host spent whole day mixing cocktails and making appetizers... where a big pitcher of Spiked Vodka Strawberry Agua Fresca takes just 10 minutes! Vodka blends in so well with the fruity sweet fragrance of strawberries that most guests are enjoying it wondering - what's the recipe!
Now, this is a "hurrah" moment for any party host!
You know what I mean?! ;-)
For Vodka Strawberry Agua Fresca, I start by hulling the strawberries and then blending with sugar, water, and lemon juice.
When I'm hosting a Memorial Day or 4th July party... before I get to blending business, I slice strawberries and cut-out star shapes for decorative red-blue-white theme skewers... then blend all trimmings with remaining strawberries for Agua Fresca.
No waste=happy pocket=happy host!
Cheers! -Savita
