"Amor d'água fresca" ("Fresh water love") was the Portuguese entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1992, performed in Portuguese by Dina (born Ondina Veloso).

The song is a moderately up-tempo number, with Dina comparing her lover to a series of different fruits and his love to "fresh water". Thus, she says that she "picked you, bit you and put you in the basket" and describes her lover's "eyes of plum/And your blackberry mouth".

The song was performed eighth on the night, following Sweden's Christer Björkman with "I morgon är en annan dag" and preceding Cyprus' Evridiki with "Teriazoume". At the close of voting, it had received 26 points, placing 17th in a field of 23.

It was succeeded as Portuguese representative at the 1993 contest by Anabela with "A cidade (até ser dia)".
