Ingredients
- ripe cashew fruits - 4-6 fruits (use 4 to 6 ripe cashew fruits (the fleshy fruit, not the nut))

- ice - to taste (for serving)
- lemon juice - juice of 1 lemon (optional) (optional, for a citrus touch)
Instructions
- Prepare the cashew fruits: Wash the cashew fruits thoroughly. Remove the nut and any bad or yellow parts from the fruit. Cut off the corners or tips to avoid bitterness.

- Blend ingredients: Place the cashew fruit pieces in a blender. Add 1 liter of purified water, 1 tablespoon of salt, and 1/4 cup of sugar. Blend well until smooth.

- Add optional ingredients: Add lemon juice if desired and adjust sweetness to taste.
- Chill and serve: Remove any foam from the top, refrigerate the drink for better flavor development, and serve chilled with ice.
