Red Meat Allergy Friendly Strawberry Lime Agua Fresca

Few drinks capture the feeling of a warm afternoon quite like a cold glass of agua fresca. This version blends ripe strawberries with bright lime juice and a touch of maple syrup for a drink that's naturally sweet, a little tart, and completely refreshing. The fine-mesh straining step is what sets it apart — it removes all the pulp and seeds, leaving behind a silky, jewel-red liquid that looks as good as it tastes. A pinch of salt might seem unexpected, but it quietly deepens the strawberry flavor in a way that makes every sip more interesting. Because this recipe is built entirely from fresh fruit, citrus, and a plant-based sweetener, there's nothing to second-guess about what's in your glass. It's the kind of drink that works just as well at a backyard cookout as it does on a quiet weekday afternoon. Pour it over plenty of ice, add a lime slice if you're feeling fancy, and enjoy something genuinely delicious with zero fuss.
