Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole (approximately 4 lbs) Honeydew melon
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 6 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup Cold water
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 4 sprigs Mint sprigs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Cut the honeydew melon in half and remove the seeds with a spoon. Scoop out the flesh using a spoon or melon baller and transfer it to a blender or food processor.
Add lime juice, honey, fresh mint leaves, Greek yogurt, cold water, and salt to the blender.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. If the soup is too thick, add a little more cold water to achieve the desired consistency.
Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more honey if needed, blending again to incorporate.
Transfer the soup to a large bowl or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until thoroughly chilled.
Before serving, give the soup a quick stir. Ladle it into bowls or serving glasses.
Garnish with a mint sprig on top, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing honeydew melon soup!
