Agua Rica is a line of ready-to-drink beverages that makes it easy for people to get a taste of traditional agua fresca flavors. Currently, the brand offers three refreshing varieties: Hibiscus, Cucumber and a pink-hued Lemonade that's enhanced with vegetable extracts for color. In all, the drinks are non-GMO, vegan-friendly and naturally flavored.
As agua frescas are traditionally made with fruits, flowers, sugar and water, the Lemonade and Cucumber flavors are made with lemon juice concentrate and the Hibiscus variety features a formula that's made with hibiscus flowers. The light, non-alcoholic beverages are sweetened with cane sugar and come in between 100 to 120 calories.
The light and refreshing Agua Rica products are packaged in 12-ounce bottles that are accompanied with illustrated images of the main ingredient for an artisanal, handcrafted feel.
