With Hydration and Juice For All! Nuun-ified Watermelon-Blueberry-Pomegranate Agua Fresca Recipe

Happy 4th of July! Nothing like sitting out on the front porch, resting hamstrings fatigued from the morning’s Freedom 5000 and declaring independence from corn-syrupy sodas with a nice big glass of watermelon agua fresca in hand. Even though these “fresh waters” originated in Mexico and Central America, I am happy to pledge my allegiance to the light-bodied, fruitiness that is oh-so ultra thirst-quenching without being too sugary sweet.

Of course, I had to take my own liberties with this summery south-of-the-border sipper by adding a couple Nuun All-Day Hydration Blueberry Pomegranate tablets.  If you aren’t familiar with this new product from Nuun, you should be! Each fizzing drink tablet has less than 8 calories, zero sugar and no artificial stuff while boasting a blend of vitamins A, B, C, D and E to keep you hydrated, energized and focused throughout the day

Nuun Watermelon-Blueberry-Pomegranate Agua Fresca Recipe

  • 2 cups cold water
  • 2 tablets Nuun All-Day Hydration Blueberry Pomegranate
  • 2 cups seedless watermelon, chopped in 1-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoons Stevia sweetener
  • Crushed ice for serving (optional)
  • Handful of frozen blueberries for garnish (optional)

Pour water in blender; drop in Nuun tablets and wait for them to completely dissolve. Add watermelon chunks and Stevia to blender and puree until smooth. Pour mixture through a strainer into a pitcher, forcing a bit of the pulp through. Chill at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve with or without ice cubes and a smattering of frozen blueberries. Makes two servings (only 60 calories each)!

  1. Thanks for the recipe! It sounds yummy and I can’t wait to give it a try. I will check out the Nunn tablets, I’ve never heard of them. I have been having a tough time with my training lately due to the heat. It’s been over 100 degrees (not counting heat index) for the last couple of weeks and I can’t seem to get hydrated. I’m new to your blog and I really enjoy it…it’s in my favorites list.
