A tier

Agua Dulce is a named jicama cultivar class associated with sweet, juicy roots preferred for fresh eating—literally “sweet water” in Spanish marketing spirit. Texture stays crisp with higher perceived sweetness than fibrous older roots. Grown in Mexican production regions for quality fresh markets. Eat raw to showcase sweetness; avoid long cooking that turns it bland. Ideal for fruit-vegetable snack plates. Seek firm, heavy roots without cracks.
