Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups water
1 cup sugar
1 1-ounce piece fresh ginger, sliced
3 whole cloves
1 3-inch cinnamon stick
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
1 tablespoon dark rum
1 honeydew melon, halved, seeded
1 cantaloupe melon, halved, seeded

Steps:

  • Bring first 6 ingredients to boil in small saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer until mixture is reduced to 3/4 cup, about 25 minutes. Cool. Strain mixture. Add rum and stir to combine. Refrigerate until cold, at least 1 hour. (Cinnamon-clove syrup can be prepared 2 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
  • Scoop out enough melon balls from honeydew and cantaloupe to measure 4 cups total. Divide melon balls among 6 bowls. Top with syrup and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe honeydew melons: Look for melons that are heavy for their size, have a smooth, creamy rind, and yield to gentle pressure.
  • Prepare the melons properly: Wash the melons thoroughly, cut them in half, scoop out the seeds, and remove the rind.
  • Use a food processor or blender: Puree the melon chunks in a food processor or blender until smooth.
  • Strain the puree: Pour the melon puree through a fine-mesh strainer to remove any solids.
  • Add sugar and lemon juice: Stir in sugar and lemon juice to taste. You can adjust the amount of sugar and lemon juice depending on your desired sweetness and tartness.
  • Cook the syrup: Bring the syrup to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the syrup has thickened.
  • Store the syrup: Let the syrup cool completely, then transfer it to a clean glass jar. Seal the jar tightly and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Honeydew syrup is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of recipes. It is a great way to add a sweet and refreshing flavor to your favorite dishes.
