How to make Prickly Pear Water:
- It is very easy and quick to prepare a succulent tuna water. To do this, as a first step, remove the skin from the tuna by making two cuts on the edges, then a cross cut and peeling the fruit very carefully so as not to hurt yourself with the thorns.
- When you have all the tunas peeled, cut them into medium pieces to make blending easier.
- Place the pieces of tuna in the blender, add the sugar, the juice of two lemons and half a liter of water. Blend for a few minutes.
- Trick: lemon is optional, you can also add cucumber, some other fruit or seed like chia. You can also substitute sugar for some sweetener.
- Pass the mixture through a strainer to remove the seeds from the tuna. Add the remaining liter of water and mix.
- You already have your tuna water with lemon ready, now just add a little ice to taste and enjoy this refreshing drink. You can also add some mint leaves if you want to add an even more refreshing touch.
