Few drinks capture the feeling of a warm afternoon quite like a cold, fruit-forward agua fresca. This version leans on ripe fresh strawberries and bright lime juice for a flavor that's simultaneously sweet, tart, and completely refreshing. Maple syrup steps in as the sweetener, giving the drink a subtle depth that plain sugar just can't match. The whole thing comes together in a blender and gets strained through a fine-mesh sieve, so you end up with a silky, pulp-free drink that looks as good as it tastes. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of gluten, so there's no label-reading stress or ingredient swapping required โ just whole, simple produce doing all the work. Poured over ice with a few lime slices floating on top, it's the kind of thing that disappears fast at a backyard gathering or a lazy weekend brunch. Make a big pitcher and keep it in the fridge, because people will absolutely come back for seconds.

Combine the strawberries, cold water, lime juice, maple syrup, and salt in a blender. Blend on high until completely smooth, about 30โ45 seconds.
Set a fine-mesh strainer over a large pitcher. Pour the blended mixture through the strainer in batches, pressing gently on the solids with the back of a spoon until only dry pulp remains. Discard the pulp.
