Refreshing drinks (non-alcoholic)

To kick it off, an RIP section: Shout out to Baroo’s tepache and Andy Ricker’s drinking vinegars. At least Ricker’s shrub-like drinks are still available elsewhere (as is the pandan water available in at least one location we visited).

I like that Apotheke has non-alcoholic options but they didn’t strike me as particularly memorable compared to their other drinks. Salazar’s agua frescas were pretty solid but a touch sweet (maybe because the readily available spiked option balances out the sugar…?).

My go-to is probably Jugos Azteca for a frosty watermelon drink next to their breakfast burrito but I’m always open to recommendations.

Thanks for this endorsement, this is on my list now!

Also, on the list is Ashtala (now called Juice Barrel?) If anybody’s tried it, please report back:

Sorry for the long posts, over to you folks!
