Steps:
- Puree 2 cups chopped peeled cucumbers, the juice of 1 lime, 2 tablespoons agave syrup, 1/2 cup mint and 1 cup water in a blender. Chill 30 minutes, then strain, pressing on the solids. Divide among ice-filled glasses. Top with cucumber and lime slices.
CANTALOUPE-LIME AGUA FRESCA WITH CHIA SEEDS
A light, refreshing blender drink that is sweet and a little bit tart. Although I make this in a blender, I think it qualifies as an agua fresca rather than a smoothie, as it is made with pure fruit, enriched with a spoonful of soaked chia seeds. The flavor of the drink will only be as good as your melon, so seek out the best cantaloupe, or other sweet orange melon, you can find. I don't add sweetener to the drink, but you can if you think it needs a little something.

CUCUMBER LIME MINT AGUA FRESCA
Steps:
- Put ingredients in blender. Add enough water to fill 3/4 of the blender and puree until smooth. Pour through a fine mesh sieve or coffee filter, pressing with a spatula, to extract as much liquid as possible. To serve, fill a large pitcher halfway with ice cubes; add juice and serve with sprigs of mint and slice of lime.
PINEAPPLE AND LIME AGUA FRESCA
From The Food and Cooking of Spain, Africa and the Middle East, posted for Zaar World Tour III. When I made this, I made a half batch, but my limes were small and I used 1/2 lb of pineapple and 2 limes - and probably could have used 3. I also used sparkling mineral water, and it was fine. Sugar will be to taste, depending on how tart your fruit is.

Steps:
- Peel the pineapple and chop the flesh, removing core and "eyes.".
- You should have about 1 lb of fruit.
- Put pineapple in food processor or blender and add the lime juice and half the mineral water.
- Puree to a smooth pulp.
- Stop processor and scrape the mixture from the side once or twice during processing.
- Place a strainer over a large bowl.
- Tip the pineapple pulp into the strainer and press it through with a wooden spoon.
- Pour the strained mixture into a large jug, cover and chill in the fridge for about 1 hour.
- Stir in the remaining mineral water and sugar to taste.
- Serve with ice.
- (I'm thinking the grown-ups may want to add something else as well - rum or vodka or tequila all come to mind).
