Aqua Fresca

We tried it! Kim had a hand or two in revamping this recipe to our liking. Just the mere reduction of water and pineapple and the subtraction of sugar... then the addition of a couple mangoes and one peach with a few heathy drops of pure maple syrup did it. Wait; not quite... we poured it over ice and added Fresca soda. Ah, nearly perfect; but it needs mint. Just a few tweaks. Salute.

The Bon Appétit recipe below caught my attention because of the "Fresca" in its name. I'd blend it using an overripe pineapple, allowing for the elimination of sugar. Then, I'd combine it over ice with the real deal citrus drink and garnish with lemon... YUM!
