Very refreshing drink, very easy to make. It works just as well with Cantaloupe or Honey Dew melons. I've made this recipe with many different types of melon with great results. The grocery store I use has a yearly melon sale in the summer. You can try and buy several types of melons that you normally couldn't get in this area of Wisconsin. The Santa Claus melon has a very mild flavor and light color. I like to use my LaLane juicer.

6 KINDS OF AGUA FRESCA AND HOW TO MAKE THEM - THE …

From thespruceeats.com

Fruit Agua Fresca. Agua fresca can be made with virtually any fruit—and you can mix different fruits to make up your favorite flavor combo. Some fruits, such as melon and apples, can be blended into the water after you remove the skins, seeds, and stems.
Agua de Jamaica (Hibiscus Flower Tea) Agua fresca made with hibiscus flowers is made a little differently because the dried hibiscus needs to simmer in hot water to give up their color and flavor.
Agua de Tamarindo (Tamarind Water) The brown gooey pulp of the tamarind pod is tangy and has a mild earthiness that, when sweetened, makes a delicious agua fresca.
Chia Fresca (Mexican Lemonade With Chia Seeds) Chia seeds are a highly nutritious "superfood" that contain fiber, protein, and omega-3 fats, which are all very healthy to consume.
Horchata de Arroz (Rice Drink) Horchata can be prepared with ground seeds or nuts, but in Mexico, it is most commonly is made with rice. White rice is soaked in water or milk, then blended it with cinnamon, sugar, and sometimes other ingredients to create a surprisingly refreshing drink.
Tepache de Piña (Fermented Pineapple Drink) While not strictly an agua fresca, tepache is a very similar drink in that it is made with fruit, water, and sugar.
