Notes
Pro Tips
- Use ripe honeydew for the best flavor. A blender and fine mesh strainer can help create a smooth purée.
- Don’t over-muddle the mint just a gentle press is enough to bring out the oils without bitterness.
- For added chill, freeze honeydew cubes and blend them for an icy variation.
