Agua Fresca de Café | Coffee Agua Fresca
Think of agua fresca de café as the Mexican version of iced coffee. It’s refreshing, sweet and loaded with caffeine for that midday pick-me-up. This week is national coffee day on October 1st. What better way to celebrate? I don’t think summer knows that it’s over, because the temperature is still quite warm here in Southern California. This drink will definitely hit the spot.
Perfect for spicy tacos, smoky enchiladas or a coffee craving, agua Fresca de café is quick and easy to prepare and a nice variation of the aguas frescas lineup we are used to. To sweeten this cool beverage, I used Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar and some sweetened condensed milk for added creaminess.
