Recipe type: Beverages
Serves: 6-8
Ingredients
  • ¾ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 3 cups water
  • 1¾ cups honeydew melon juice (about 3 cups cubed, before pureed)
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 7-8 mint leaves
Directions
  1. In a pitcher add lemon juice, sugar, honey and water. Set aside.
  2. Cut honeydew melon into chunks. You'll need about 3-4 cups. Puree the chunks in a food processor until very smooth. In small batches, pour the pulp through a fine mesh strainer with a bowl underneath to catch the juice. Using the bottom of a spatula, push the pulp against the mesh to squeeze out all the juice. Once the juice has been squeezed out, discard the pulp and repeat with the next batch until all the honeydew melon juice has been strained. Once you have 1¾ cups honeydew melon juice, add it to the pitcher and stir.
  3. Add raspberries and mint leaves. Chill in fridge for 3-4 hours. Add ice before serving.
