- 2 (2) ice cubes (if needed)
- ¼ cup (60 ml) milk (optional), dairy or non-dairy, or water
- 1 Tbsp honey (if needed) or sugar
KEY: pinch (⅛ tsp) | tsp = teaspoon (5ml) | Tbsp = Tablespoon (15ml)
- Put the cantaloupe cubes into a blender. If cantaloupe is not frozen, add ice cubes on top. If desired, add milk. Blend to desired consistency.
- Taste and adjust for sweetness and density, adding a little honey or sugar and/or a little liquid if needed. Voilá. Enjoy! If you grow mint or have some around, place a pretty sprig on top.
