CANTALOUPE DAIQUIRIS
My friend grows the most amazing cantaloupes. After pigging out on most of one I decided to search for a great drink recipe using this sweet fruit. I found this drink from the Seattle-Post Intelligencer. Make sure you use only the sweetest cantaloupe you can find.

Tips:
- For a sweeter daiquiri, use ripe cantaloupe. If your cantaloupe is not very sweet, you can add a little sugar or honey to taste.
- If you don't have lime juice, you can use lemon juice instead.
- If you want a stronger daiquiri, you can add more rum.
- For a refreshing twist, garnish your daiquiri with a slice of cantaloupe or a lime wedge.
- If you are using frozen cantaloupe, thaw it completely before making the daiquiri.
- To make a non-alcoholic version of this daiquiri, simply omit the rum.
