Speaking of fresh waters, we just made several batches of aguas frescas ourselves for the various events we have planned in our beloved region.

If you’re not familiar with the term it literally means, well, “fresh waters” but it actually stands for the wonderful traditional beverages often served at Mexican parties for special occasions or “just because”.

They’re not only a great way to chase down some spicy tacos or a rich meal, but they’re also absolutely fantastic on their own.

The images you see on this blog post were taken of the aguas frescas that we served for a wedding up North earlier this month at the Dos Pueblos Orchid Farm. Sure, it was a stunning and beautiful occasion, yet these delightful beverages are just as enjoyable if we were to be taco catering for a birthday or company grand opening.

The one in the middle is one of our personal favorites, Aguas Frescas de Sandía, made of sweet ripened watermelon. More than just a sweet beverage, it’s actually extremely flavorful and flexible when pairing with anything on our menu.

Finally, the last but not least in that photo is our Aguas Frescas de Horchata, which consists of wonderful rice milk flavored with cinnamon for an earthy rich flavor that’s a common staple in meals South of the Border.

So, which one is better?! It’s hard to tell! They’re all so very good! For this event, we’re sure all the guests were happy to have three choices. Because it would have been a tough decision if they only had one to select from.

If you’d like more info on the wide selection of aguas frescas that we have available for private catering do not hesitate to contact one of our friendly event coordinators. They would be delighted to give your the thirst quenching information.

Also, now and then we do offer a selection or two on the food truck, especially on Tuesday nights at Cismontane. So, if you’d like to chase your ale and taco with something sweet and refreshing, be sure to make next Tuesday night down on your calendar.

In the meantime, have a terrific TGIF. We’re just about to launch into another weekend filled with special occasions and hopefully we’ll have the opportunity to serve you a tall glass of aguas frescas at one of them.

Buen provecho!
