What does aguachile mean?

"Aguachile" is a Spanish word, and it literally translates to "chilled water".

However, it's not just any chilled water. Aguachile is a popular Mexican dish consisting of raw seafood, typically shrimp or fish, marinated in a spicy, citrusy sauce. The sauce usually includes:

* Lime or lemon juice

* Chiles, such as serrano or jalapeño

* Fresh cilantro

* Onion

* Salt

So, while "chilled water" accurately describes the literal translation, "aguachile" really means "a refreshing, spicy seafood dish marinated in a citrusy sauce".
