Chef’s Note: For a time saver and short cut, feel free to purchase pre-cut cantaloupe in your grocer’s produce section. However, here is a link that will teach you how to correctly cut a melon. Be sure to CHILL glasses! You may need to blend this agua fresca in batches depending on the container size of your blender.
