hoursWhen melon, lime and sugar get blitzed into a beverage, that’s agua fresca. For our frozen version of this popular Mexican drink, we bring our blossom-studded Namaste Tea to the party. We use the tea to make ice cubes and drop them into the blender with fruit. The result? Fruity and floral refreshment.

Ingredients
1/4 cup Namaste Tea
1.5 cups water
1 cantaloupe, peeled, seeded, cubed and chilled
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup sugar
Instructions
- First make the Namaste Tea ice cubes: Heat the water until simmering. Add in the Namaste Tea and turn off heat. Steep for at least 30 minutes. Strain off leaves and pour the tea into ice cube trays. Freeze until solid.
- Be sure the cantaloupe is well chilled. We refrigerated ours and then popped the canteloupe cubes into the freezer for about 10 minutes.
- In a blender, add in the cantaloupe, 8 Namaste Tea ice cubes, lime juice and sugar. Blend until smooth. Pour into chilled glasses and enjoy!
