OLD-SCHOOL MELON COCKTAILS

Steps:
- Puree the cantaloupe with the cider, the juice of 1/2 lemon (or to taste) and a pinch of salt in a blender on low speed. While you want the mixture to be smooth, keeping the blender on low will help you avoid whipping unnecessary air into the melon and lightening the flavor along with the color. Add a little ice water if the blender has trouble blending the melon, and if you feel the melon lacks sweetness, add honey to taste. Refrigerate until ready to make the drinks.
- Put half each of the melon puree and gin, and 1 more tablespoon lemon juice in a shaker (or any container with a fitted lid) with a few ice cubes and shake until blended and cold. Strain into 2 chilled glasses. Rub the rim of each glass with the lemon wedge for a little added acidity when sipping, and garnish with melon balls. Repeat to make 2 more drinks.

5/5 (2)Published Sep 29, 2022Category Cocktails, Recipe Roundup
- Fresh Honeydew Margarita. I had to start with my go-to summer drink (because you must know by now I’m a marg-fanatic!). There’s nothing better than a cool margarita on a hot day.
- Honeydew Martini. The bright green color of this next drink isn’t the only thing you’ll love about this pretty martini. You’ll also appreciate the light and breezy combination of honeydew puree, lime juice, Triple Sec, and Champagne.
- Cantaloupe Basil Coolers. If there’s only one drink you make this summer, let it be this cantaloupe and basil cooler. Trust me, you’ll adore the refreshing sweetness of the fruit with the herbal kick of the basil.
- Honeydew Mojitos. Do you love all things mojito? If the answer is yes, this cocktail is for you. Every sip hits you with a wave of invigorating minty flavors, balanced out by a sugary honeydew.
- Cantaloupe Grapefruit Martini. This summer bevy is the perfect drink for entertaining guests on your deck. And that pretty peach hue will look incredible in your Instagram feed!
