CANTALOUPE AQUA FRESCA WITH BEET SWIRL



Cantaloupe Aqua Fresca with Beet Swirl image

Sold at Mexican street stands in large, clear barrels-the better to show off their festive colors-_agua frescas_, or "fresh waters," can be made with all kinds of fruits and herbs, the riper the better. Here, Feniger tops a traditional cantaloupe cooler with a decorative swirl of vivid beet purée. Roasting the beet heightens its sweetness and intensifies its color.

Provided by Susan Feniger

Yield Makes 12 drinks

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 small red beet (1/4 pound), scrubbed
1 (6-pound) ripe cantaloupe, peeled, seeded, and chopped (12 cups)
4 cups cold water, divided
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 to 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in middle.
  • Wrap beet in foil and put in a small 4-sided sheet pan, then roast until tender when pierced with a knife, 45 to 50 minutes. Unwrap and let stand until cool enough to handle.
  • While beet roasts, purée cantaloupe, 3 cups water, lime juice, and 1/4 to 1/3 cup sugar (to taste) in 3 to 4 batches in a blender until very smooth, about 1 minute per batch. Chill agua fresca until cold, about 2 hours.
  • Peel and chop beet, then purée with remaining cup water and remaining tablespoon sugar in cleaned blender until smooth. Chill beet purée until cold, about 2 hours.
  • To serve, pour agua fresca over ice in tall glasses, then dollop 1 Tbsp beet purée on top of each drink, swirling it decoratively with a spoon.
