Wheat Free Classic Watermelon Agua Fresca

Few drinks capture the spirit of summer quite like a tall, ice-cold glass of this blended watermelon refresher. Fresh watermelon gets blended with cold water, then strained into a pitcher and brightened with a squeeze of lime juice and just a pinch of salt — the result is light, juicy, and deeply satisfying in a way that no bottled drink can match. The whole thing comes together in minutes with ingredients you can grab at any grocery store, no specialty shopping required. Because it's built entirely from fruit, water, lime, and a touch of sugar, it's naturally free from wheat and grain-based additives without any substitutions needed — just pure, clean flavor. The fine-mesh straining step is what gives it that smooth, almost silky texture that sets a proper agua fresca apart from a basic smoothie. A few lime wedges on the side add a little extra zing if you want to dial up the citrus. It's the kind of drink that disappears fast, so you may want to double the batch before guests arrive.
