Instructions

Prepare the fruits: Peel and chop the pineapple into chunks and hull the strawberries to get them ready for blending.
Blend fruits and lime: In a blender, combine the pineapple chunks, strawberries, and freshly squeezed lime juice. Blend until you achieve a smooth consistency.
Strain for smoothness (optional): To remove pulp and get a smoother texture, strain the blended mixture through a fine mesh strainer.
Add sweetener: Mix in 2 tablespoons of agave syrup or honey, adjusting the amount to your personal taste. Blend briefly just to combine thoroughly.
Adjust consistency and chill: Pour in cold filtered water until you reach your preferred thickness. Stir or blend lightly again if needed. Refrigerate the agua fresca until chilled before serving.

Notes

You can substitute agave syrup with honey or a sweetener of your choice.
For a pulp-free drink, be sure to strain the mixture well after blending.
Adjust the water quantity to make the drink lighter or more concentrated based on preference.
This beverage is best served cold and consumed within 1-2 days for freshness.
Add ice cubes or garnish with fresh fruit slices for an extra refreshing touch.
