Gently help work the puree through the strainer to remove the seeds and excess pulp (there should be about 1–2 teaspoons seeds and pulp remaining in strainer). Rinse out blender and discard pulp.
2 Add strained strawberry liquid back into the blender. Add watermelon and remaining water and blend until fruit is puréed and liquid is smooth. Repeat straining process (there should be about 1 tablespoon seeds and pulp remaining in strainer). Rinse out blender and discard pulp.
3 Add strained fruit liquid back into the blender. Add lime juice and sugar and blend to combine.
4 To serve, pour agua fresca into 4–6 glasses over ice. Garnish with a fresh strawberry and watermelon slice, if desired. Enjoy!
