Aguas Frescas

Aguas frescas, or fresh waters, hold a special place in Mexican culture. These cool, thirst-quenching beverages are a staple during the hot summer months.
With a variety of fresh waters to choose from, you will have a hard time deciding which one will satisfy your palette; agua de jamaica (hibiscus water), piña ( pineapple water), limon (lime water), or horchata (rice water).

Often served in small plastic bags with a straw, or from friendly local vendors at flea markets or Mexican supermarkets, they offer a taste of the authentic Mexican experience.

Enjoying one of these waters brings up beautiful memories of visiting Mexico and walking down the streets, interacting with the friendly people of the town, and supporting the local vendors.

Let the refreshing nostalgia of "Aguas Frescas" fill your surroundings, taking you on a sensory journey that combines tradition, freshness, and the heartwarming memories of Mexico.
