Notes
Cucumber Honeydew Agua Fresca can be refrigerated for up to 2 days but is best served fresh.
I like to keep the pulp with all the fiber in this drink, but you can easily pass the drink through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the pulp. As it sits, it will begin to seperate with the bright green liquid on the bottom and the lighter-colored thick pulp on top.
See this post for amount of various melons.
