Cool and Refreshing Cantaloupe Drink
Prep:15m
Ready in:15m
Serving:8 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cantaloupe, halved and seeded
  • ½ cup white sugar, or more to taste
  • 2 cups milk
  • 6 cups cold water, or more as needed

Cooking Directions

  1. Shred the cantaloupe into a large pitcher using a fork, making sure to catch all the juice and pulp. Stir in the sugar, mashing any large pieces of cantaloupe. Stir in the milk and water, adding enough to fill the pitcher. Serve cold.
This drink is best served ice cold. Serve in a tall glass with a spoon so you can eat the little chunks of melon as you drink the liquid. You could skip the step of shredding the fruit with the fork and just throw it all in the blender, but you wouldn't get the yummy chunks (which to me is the best part!) The amount of sugar listed is a guideline. Adjust to how sweet your melon is/your personal taste. I hope you enjoy this delicious drink!
