Watermelon agua fresca

 
Cool off this Cinco de Mayo with a beverage that’s super popular in Mexico as well as Central America and the Caribbean. Agua fresca (or water refreshments) is a traditional sip that’s typically made with fruits found locally. Now that watermelon has hit farmer’s markets and grocery stores, we can’t wait to try this riff on a classic recipe.

 

Ingredients:

1 cup finely cut watermelon

7 cups coarsely chopped watermelon

6 cups watermelon juice

1/2 cup sugar

1 large lime, juiced

 

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in a large serving pitcher and stir to mix well. Garnish with watermelon wedges and mint and serve over ice in tumblers, mason jars or margarita glasses for a festive effect.

 

Muchas gracias to Watermelon.org for sharing this recipe with Girls’ Life!

MOD MOD MOD Okay two things:
1) I really, REALLY want to start to eat healthy during lunch, which is the hardest. Any suggestions for me to pack in my lunch box that doesn't take too long?
2) I just got contacts, but I'm kinda scared to put them in my eye! I have to wait a little while (a couple weeks) because of allergies and itchy eyes. Any advice on this...?




Hey girlie,

1. Try packing salads in Tupperware containers with the salad dressing in a container on the side. Sliced veggies with ranch dip is also tasty, plus yogurt, soups, granola bars, fruits like bananas or grapes or apple slices, lunch meat sandwiches with light mayo/cucumbers/on whole grain bread, etc. Try to make good choices and bring a well-rounded lunch - a lunch with lots of small portions of healthy stuff is better than bringing a huge portion of something that isn't as healthy, like pasta or fried/fast foods Smile

2. You'll get used to how they feel as you use them more often! I use contacts too and I remember the first time I got them, I was SO scared of the feeling when they "stick" to your eye. It felt kinda like a tiny bit of suction and it really freaked me out. But the more I used them and the more I got used to it (putting them on my eye, rolling my eye a little so it sealed easy and didn't pop back out), it got soooo easy I can do it without even really thinking about it Smile Give it some time and you'll feel better about it, promise!

Hey girl,

YES! Please check out our Giveaway of the Day rules to find out what to do if you haven't received your prize after 4-6 weeks. Please note we do not accept responsibility for any prizes if you have not contacted us in 12 weeks so, since January was more than 12 weeks ago, we can't guarantee that we'll be able to help. But it's worth a try <3
