I'm not sure what went wrong, but my agua fresca turned out really bitter. I think I may have used too much basil.

This recipe was a waste of time. It didn't turn out well at all. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't come together.

I wasn't a huge fan of this recipe. I found it to be a bit bland. I think it needed more lime juice or maybe some other type of citrus.

This agua fresca was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try it again with less sugar next time.
