Zubereitung von Watermelon Agua Fresca Sandia
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of sugar and 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- While the sugar syrup cools, peel and cut a 6-cup (approximately 4 pounds) watermelon into chunks. Remove as many seeds as possible.
- Using a potato masher, gently mash the watermelon chunks until you achieve a mostly smooth consistency with some visible fruit pieces remaining. Avoid using a blender for optimal texture.
- In a large pitcher, combine the mashed watermelon, cooled sugar syrup, and the juice of 2 limes. Stir well to combine.
- Taste and adjust sweetness and lime flavor to your preference. Add more sugar, lime juice, or plain water as needed.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and chill thoroughly. Serve over ice. Leftover agua fresca can be frozen into refreshing paletas!
