I currently have a surplus of honeydew melons in the fridge – 3 to be exact.  Considering these could be the first honeydews I have ever purchased – this is quite a lot of melon to have at one time.  Ahh CSA boxes.   Regardless, today it was a wonderfully sunny day in San Francisco, and time to have some honeydew.  And what better way to celebrate the long weekend than with a lovely fruit cocktail.  These could easily be made with vodka or rum, but we had gin.  Mint, orange, possibly even pepper could be fantastic additions.  These are easy and tasty – enjoy!

Ingredients:

• 1/2 honeydew melon, seeded, peeled, and cubed
• 1/2 c. gin (or vodka, or rum…)
• juice of 2 limes

1. Place all ingredients in a blender.  Blend until smooth.  Serve over ice.
