Tangerine Mint Agua Fresca

Recipe Description

Great for winter get-togethers, this Tangerine Mint Agua Fresca features the right balance of flavors and makes for an easy sipping. A sprinkling of sugar and a few fresh mint leaves surprisingly elevates this wintry citrus drink. To serve, garnish with extra slices of fruit and mint, and enjoy very cold. 

This nonalcoholic drink is an easy mix of freshly squeezed tangerine juice, water, mint, and sugar. Making your own freshly squeezed tangerine juice does take a bit of time, but the flavor will be far more superior to typical store-bought juice. Since tangerines have varying amounts of sweetness, feel free to adjust the sugar amount to taste. Chill well before serving
