Agua Fresca De Pina (Pineapple)

Submitted by Stephanie Y.

"I love aguas and this one is a little different. The mint makes it refreshing. Note: To make your glasses look festive you can wet the rim of the glass with water, juice or by running a lime or lemon along the rim. Then, dip the glass in decorative sugar of your choice."

Wow CD! this was wonderful. I loved the sweet, sour, tart and tangy taste of this refreshing drink. It was very easy to make and easier to drink. I rimmed my glasses in coarse blue sugar, to showcase the beautiful colors of the agua fresca. We found that the mint compliments the pineapple beautifully, giving it a new taste dimension. Thank you so much for sharing. I'll be making this often this summer...Kudos Kato

This is good. I followed the recipe but didn't add the mint because I don't like mint. Anything with fresh pineapple is great. made for Newest tag 2007.
