This might be one of the prettiest drinks I've made. I love the soft orange colour of the cantaloupe melon, and during the summer they are at their peak--great taste and not too expensive. This morning I purchased a baby cantaloupe from an organic farmers market, for $1!
The sweet cantalope melon is surprisingly healthy and so refreshing it makes for a great beverage addition to shake up your normal drink routines.
My family gave it rave reviews, but for my sisters taste, she preferred the drink strained of any melon pulp. Its great either way in my opinion.
Ingredients:
1/2 cantaloupe melon*
1 1/2 c milk
1 Tbsp honey
*Note that the size of the melon will dictate the size of the drink.
Directions:
1. Remove seeds of the melon with a spoon. Scoop the melon out of the skin into a bowl and freeze for 1 hour until solid. Cover with plastic wrap if freezing longer.
2. Put the milk and honey into the blender and add the frozen melon. Process until smooth.
Makes approx. 1L
