Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium (about 2-3 lbs) Cantaloupe
- 1 large Orange
- 1 small Lime
- 8 leaves Mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 cup Cold water
- 1 cup Ice cubes
Instructions
Cut the cantaloupe in half and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Using a sharp knife, remove the rind and cut the cantaloupe flesh into small chunks.
Peel the orange and remove any seeds. Separate it into segments.
Cut the lime in half and set aside for juicing.
In a blender, combine the cantaloupe chunks, orange segments, mint leaves, honey, and cold water.
Squeeze the juice from the lime halves into the blender to add a bright citrus twist.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and well-combined.
Strain the juice through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large pitcher to remove pulp, if desired.
Fill serving glasses with ice cubes and pour the strained juice over the ice.
Garnish each glass with a sprig of mint or a small wedge of cantaloupe, if desired, and serve immediately.
