Agua De Guayaba (Guava Drink) image

Very refreshing on a hot day(or with hot food).Aguas Frescas aren't very strong ,but that's what makes them good thirst quenchers.How much sugar and lemon you need will depend on the flavor of the fruit you use.You absolutely have to strain this to get out all the annoying little seeds.
