Sugar-Free Cantaloupe Agua Fresca (Vegan)

Cantaloupe Agua Fresca | Low-Carb, So Simple!

Happy Cinco de Mayo! Let’s freshen up with some ice-cold agua fresca! I made some from cantaloupe, would you care for a glass of this fruity refreshment? — Great! Here you are…

Tips for making the agua fresca

This is a super-simple recipe and doesn’t need any tricks. You don’t even have to strain the liquid if you don’t mind some pulp in your drink.

Even better, you can freeze the cantaloupe chunks beforehand and blend them into slush with the rest of the ingredients.

I’ve used erythritol crystals here as sweetener, in my opinion erythritol gives better sweetness than for example stevia alone. The erythritol crystals usually have some problems in dissolving in cold liquids, but here the blending makes them dissolve completely.

This is a refreshing thirst quencher rather than a very sweet or powerfully tasting drink. If you prefer sweeter flavor, you can add some liquid stevia to the ready drink.

Sugar-Free Cantaloupe Agua Fresca (Vegan)

  • 1 lb = 450 g cantaloupe flesh (from approx. 1/2 cantaloupe melon)
  • 2 1/2 cups = 600 ml cold water
  • 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lime juice from organic limes
  • 2 tablespoons (or to taste) erythritol crystals
  1. Add all ingredients to a blender jar.
  2. Close the lid tightly and puree until smooth.
  3. Place a mesh strainer on a large saucepan. Pour the cantaloupe mixture to the strainer and press with a back of a spoon to save all liquid. (That liquid is now your agua fresca!)
  4. Fill the serving glasses with ice. Pour in the agua fresca.
  5. Serve immediately.

P.S. Since I have been bombing you now so frequently with Cinco de Mayo recipes, I decided to publish the rest of the planned recipes on my Facebook page. So, later today you will find recipes for Sugar-Free Strawberry Agua Fresca:

on my Facebook page. However, if you would like me to publish the recipes here in my blog, no hay bronca, just leave a comment below and I write them here asap.

P.P.S. If you crave for healthy and natural low-carb tortilla chips, look no further than here. Just replace the chives with 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning and use 1 teaspoon Garlic Bread Seasoning instead of garlic powder. Roll out the dough as thin as you can, and cut into triangles before baking, like in the photo below. You might want to bake the chips 40 minutes to get guaranteed crispy result. Just be careful that they don’t get too brown and burn.
