Prepare one of these 5 recipes for combined fresh waters for calorts

How hot! But also what a desire to prepare combined fresh waters.

For example, this recipe for marzipan horchata water.

And, during this time of year, spring and summertemperatures in our country can reach up to 40°C.

What better way to refresh ourselves than with colorful drinkswith seasonal fruits that will also fill us with energy.

If you are tired of the typical lemon water and want to pamper yourself with delicious combinations of fruits, but you don’t know where to start, I bring you ideas.
