I recently traveled to Mexico and discovered agua fresca- it was so fabulous I had to Google some recipes when I returned home. I’m confused though, I see you were to post 52 recipes, but when I click on the “agua fresca” cloud tag, only a couple random recipes show up. Is there a way to find the list of all 52 recipes? Thanks! This looks like a wonderful site.

You list amounts for lime&water but say to taste for sugar. I find that the agua fresca in Mexico is much more refreshing than what we Anglo-Saxon based cultures produce as lemonade because they use far less sugar.
I’m really looking forward to the next 51 ideas!
