Guava Agua Frescas
A refreshingly pretty in pink drink for all occasions. Add a bit of tequila or cayenne pepper for that Mexican hit!
We have so many guavas on our tree right now, and frankly they smell terrible unless you’re eating them. There have been more than we could eat and more ripening as we speak! So what to do?? Given my penchant for all things Mexican right now, I thought it appropriate to whip them up into a refreshing agua fresca. SO quick, so pretty and so refreshing. No complaints here. (And the smell has gone from my kitchen until tomorrow and the next crop harvested needs using!!)
