GUAVA, GRAPEFRUIT, AND ROSEMARY AGUA FRESCA (AGUA FRESCA DE GUAYABA, TORONJA Y ROMERO)

I have always thought that aguas frescas were born out of resourcefulness. If you only have one melon to juice but there are ten people coming over for lunch, how do you make it yield more? By turning it into an agua fresca. It is a wonderful fresh tradition shared by the entire country. It is the perfect drink to have when a fruit juice would be too much and plain water too boring. It has three basic ingredients: water, fruit, and sugar. The method is basically the same for all aguas. We have listed a basic method with four different ratios and flavor profiles, so you get familiar with the process and then make it your own. You can play with different fruit, herb, and spice combinations and by adjusting the sweetness levels to your taste and the ratio of water to fruit. For example, we like ours a bit more watery and I barely add any sugar. Following this one, we included three recipes for aguas that stray from the norm a bit and are each interesting in its own way.

Guava, Grapefruit, and Rosemary Agua Fresca (Agua fresca de guayaba, toronja y romero) image

Steps:

  • In a blender, combine all the ingredients, except the sugar, and blend well. Standard blender jars probably won't fit all the ingredients so blend in batches. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a pitcher. Add sugar (or your preferred sweetener) to taste, adjusting for your own preference and based on how sweet the fruit is to begin with. Add enough ice to your liking. As an option, you can garnish with a piece of an ingredient in the agua. For example, a sprig of rosemary, a stick of cinnamon, or slices of lemon. Pour into ice-filled glasses.

3 cups (710 ml/24 fl oz) water
Juice of 3 grapefruits
2 cups (430 g) guava puree (preferably from fresh guavas)
Leaves from 1 sprig fresh rosemary
½ cup (100 g) sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Spray the grill rack with nonstick spray and prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Thread 1 piece of each fruit on each of 6 skewers so that the cut sides line up and lay flat. Sprinkle the sugar over the cut sides of the fruit. Let stand until the sugar dissolves, about 10 minutes.
  • Place the fruit skewers on the grill cut side down. Grill the fruit until it is heated through and caramelized, about 5 minutes. Transfer 1 fruit skewer to each plate and serve.

Steps:

  • Using a knife, slice off the top and bottom of the grapefruit.
  • Then start slicing away the peel starting from top to bottom; use the last slice as a guide for cutting away the peel.
  • Repeat until completely peeled.
  • Remove any remaining white parts (the bitter pith).
  • Holding the peeled grapefruit over a small bowl, start cutting away the grapefruit segments (the bowl will catch the juices).
  • Slice away the fruit by cutting between the membrane.
  • Set aside the grapefruit segments.
  • Into the small bowl, squeeze the juice from the grapefruit membrane.
  • Add the green onion, mint, jalapeno, red wine vinegar, honey, extra virgin olive oil and pepper; mix thoroughly.
  • Add the grapefruit segments.
  • Serve or refrigerate until ready to use.

SUMMER SWEET GRAPE SALAD

This is a great salad or dessert, especially for a summer BBQ. I chill a large glass bowl and line with curly red and green lettuce then add the beautiful grapes. Sprinkle with a little brown sugar and pecan pieces. I am always asked for the recipe or asked to bring it to the next party. Give it a try - Great when grapes are on sale and easy to make.
