Agua fresca has been a staple drink in Mexican culture for as long as we can remember, and you can find it everywhere from restaurants to local street vendors, and now, the grocery store. Agua Bonita is a line of different-flavored agua frescas that all come in the convenience of a can. With deliciousness like Watermelon Chile, Mango Habanero, Pineapple Cucumber, and Hibiscus, it’s clear that co-founder and CEO Kayla Castañeda (she/her) is a bev genius.

With a goal to make a product that is good for you, good for the planet, and good for the community, Agua Bonita has achieved success in retailers nationwide as they work to support farm workers with a portion of their sales. This entrepreneurial journey led Kayla to being the first Latina in her industry to raise more than $1M dollars and an honoree of Forbes 30 Under 30 list. Because of the success of the brand, Castañeda is also a Cartier Women’s Initiative global impact entrepreneur, a top 100 Female Founder recognized by Inc. Magazine, and a Latina Business Woman of the Year. (Just to name a few of her accolades.)

When she’s not working on creating more delicious drinks for us to enjoy, you can find her spending time with her nephews and her newborn baby. Luckily, she shared a special recipe with us that can be enjoyed anytime, anywhere. Summer might be over, but that doesn’t mean you can’t sit back and relax with a yummy spritz!
