Can you say “Barbeque!”
I’m off early tomorrow to visit the main’s squeeze’s fam in Atlanta, and I can already smell the BBQ-laden air.
In that spirit, I leave with some aguas fresca recipes for all to beat the summer heat!
Summer, summertime!

Ingredients
3/4 cup frozen pure passion fruit puree, thawed (see Note)
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup fresh lime juice (from 5 limes), plus 6 thin lime wheels for garnish

Watermelon-Lime Frozen Agua Fresca
STAFF FAVORITE
ACTIVE TIME: 30 MIN TOTAL TIME: 1 HR 30 MIN SERVES: 6
Fanny has always had an infatuation with frozen fruit. (The pastry cooks at Chez Panisse used to freeze raspberries for her; she stuck one on each finger and then ate them.) So it’s only natural that she makes an icy drink with one of her favorite fruits, watermelon. This agua fresca has the consistency of a frozen margarita.
