Ingredients

  • ½ lb. ripe melon honeydew, musk or similar with white to green flesh, peeled, seeded, chopped into chunks
  • ½ lb. cucumbers peeled, seeded, and chopped into chunks
  • Juice from 3 medium limes
  • 2 large whole basil leaves chopped
  • 2 tablespoon of sugar or equivalent honey
  • Club Soda

Instructions

  • Combine cucumber and melon in blender with basil and blend until smooth. Strain the mixture into a large bowl and chill immediately for 30 minutes to an hour.
  • Add lime juice, sugar/honey to the mixture and stir well. Adjust sweetness as needed. Keep in mind the addition of the club soda will dilute the flavor some depending on how much soda you use.

Notes

For a grown-up alcoholic beverage this pairs well with gin or Brazilian Rum Cachaca.
