About Agua de nuez

Agua de Nuez, or walnut water, is a traditional Mexican beverage enjoyed for its rich, nutty flavor and creamy texture. Made by blending walnuts with water, sweeteners like sugar or piloncillo, and occasionally spices such as cinnamon or vanilla, this drink is often served chilled over ice. Walnuts, the star ingredient, are packed with healthy fats, plant-based protein, antioxidants, and omega-3 fatty acids, which contribute to brain health, heart health, and inflammation reduction. While Agua de Nuez provides these nutritional benefits, its sweetness can make it high in sugar depending on preparation, so it’s best consumed in moderation for those watching their sugar intake. This comforting yet refreshing drink is a celebration of Mexican culinary tradition, offering a delightful balance between indulgence and nourishing goodness.
