Step 1
Cook sesame seeds in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until toasted and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; cover with a lid.
Step 2
Place sugar in blender and enough water to fill halfway; add seeds. Blend until smooth; strain through a fine-mesh strainer into a pitcher. Repeat blending and straining if a thinner drink is desired, adding more water as desired. Refrigerate juice until cooled, about 1 hour.
