Steps:

Combine the chopped Fresnos, grenadine and 1/4 cup cold water in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into 3/4 cup cold water and stir to combine. Pour into ice cubes trays and freeze until solid, about 2 hours.
Combine the orange juice, tequila, triple sec, lime juice and agave in a pitcher and stir to combine. Add the halved Fresnos and muddle slightly with a wooden spoon. Chill at least 1 hour.
