Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (2-pound) honeydew melon, peeled, seeded, and cut into
1-inch pieces
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (about 3 limes)
1 tablespoon honey
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 thin lime slices (optional)
6 thinly sliced fresh mint leaves (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine 1 cup honeydew melon, 1/4 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves, fresh lime juice, and honey in a blender; process until smooth. Add remaining melon and salt; process until smooth. Transfer melon mixture to a bowl; cover and chill at least 1 hour. Ladle about 3/4 cup soup into each of 6 bowls; garnish each serving with 1 thin lime slice and 1 thinly sliced mint leaf, if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe honeydew melons: Look for melons that are firm, heavy for their size, and have a creamy yellow rind. Avoid melons with bruises or blemishes.
  • Chill the honeydew melon before serving: This will help to enhance the soup's refreshing flavor.
  • Use fresh mint leaves: Fresh mint leaves will provide the best flavor for the soup. If you don't have fresh mint leaves, you can use dried mint, but reduce the amount by half.
  • Adjust the sweetness of the soup to your liking: If you find the soup too sweet, you can add more lime juice or lemon juice. If you find the soup too tart, you can add more honey or sugar.
  • Serve the soup as a light lunch or dinner: It is also a great appetizer or side dish.

Conclusion:

Honeydew mint soup is a delicious, refreshing, and healthy soup that is perfect for a hot summer day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
