Instructions

To make the fresh strawberry agua fresca

Notes

Recipe Yield: 64 ounces / 8 - 8 oz servings before ice.
Storage: Store in container or pitcher large enough to store beverage. For best taste, drink within 3-4 days. Strawberry water will last up to 6-7 days.
Hosting Tip: Sugar rimmed glass and sliced lemon or lime and great garnishes to complement this Strawberry Drink Recipe. Dried fruit slices are fun too but just incase you don't end up finding them, for me fresh is always the way to go with agua fresca.
