"Sweet Water" is the name of a Giles drink that was perfected in Venezuela. Having married in to this wonderful family, I have had the privilege of being introduced to this yummy, fresh drink. When the Giles were living in Caracas, they had a oodles and oodles of delicious, very inexpensive fruit at their fingertips and Sweet Water was born.
Now, I'm afraid that the recipe can't exactly be well, exact. Somehow though, that's the beauty of this little drink. Do enjoy. Bon appétit and a special shout out to the Gilesies in Niagara Falls!
Ingredients: oranges, lemons, water, sugar
Directions: squeeze all of the juice from your oranges and lemons in to a pitcher, add some water, add some sugar to your liking. See, I told you there wasn't much of a recipe!
Hey there! There is a small addition to Sweet Water that brings it to a punch level. Use a swig of Grenadine syrup which can be found in the drink mix part of the grocery store. It makes it a beautiful peachy pink colour and makes it sweeter, so go easy on the sugar!
