Strawberry Mint Lime Agua Fresca is a refreshing, low-calorie, fruit-infused drink for hot Summer days! It's family-friendly, and DELICIOUS!
Fill a pitcher with 2 quarts of water. Squeeze the juice of 1 lime into the water. Slice another lime into wedges, and add them to the pitcher of water. Stir to combine.
Add a cup of sliced fresh strawberries to the water.
Crush HALF the peppermint leaves; add them to the water. Crushing the leaves releases the flavorful oils. You can cut them into very small pieces, if necessary. Add remaining mint leaves WHOLE to the pitcher. Stir until well-combined.
Cover the pitcher; refrigerate water for a minimum of 15-20 minutes (more time yields more color and flavor). As the fruit infuses the water, it turn a pink color, from the strawberries. **I recommend making this early in the day, if possible, and chilling it for hours, for best flavor and color!
Serve over ice cubes, and garnish glasses with strawberry slices, if desired. Enjoy!
