4-INGREDIENT CITRUS & MELON SPRITZER



4-Ingredient Citrus & Melon Spritzer image

Light and refreshing spritzers made with fresh honeydew melon and lime. Incredibly versatile and made with just 4 simple ingredients.

Provided by Minimalist Baker

Categories     Beverage

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 medium honeydew melon, halved, seeds removed and cubed ((or sub other melon of choice))
2 cups cubed honeydew melon ((~1/2 honeydew melon as recipe is written // or sub other melon of choice))
2 Tbsp lime juice ((1 large lime yields ~2 Tbsp))
2 Tbsp organic cane sugar ((or sub stevia to taste*))
~48 ounces club soda or sparkling water ((use tonic water for a sweeter drink))
Cherries or berries
Sliced cucumbers or lime wedges
Mint
1 oz. Alcohol of choice* ((per serving))

Steps:

  • To make the melon ice cubes, slice one honeydew melon in half and scoop out the seeds. Then slice into 6 wedges and run a knife very close to the rind to remove the fruit. Use a knife to cut the fruit into ice cube shapes (alternatively, use a melon baller to scoop out fruit).
  • Arrange fruit on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 1-2 hours, or until firm (like ice cubes).
  • In the meantime, remove seeds from the remaining half of the melon and scoop the fruit into a large jar (you should have ~2 cups of melon as recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size).
  • To the jar, add lime juice and organic cane sugar (or stevia) and use a muddler (or something with a flat edge) to smash and muddle together until it looks like a purée.
  • Set a fine mesh strainer over a mixing bowl and add the purée, then press to extract the juice. Continue pressing until all juice is extracted. Discard (or compost) remaining pulp, or reserve for smoothies. Set juice in refrigerator until melon cubes are frozen.
  • Once frozen, add melon cubes to desired number of serving glasses, filling 3/4 of the way up. Then top with the melon-lime juice, filling just less than halfway full.
  • At this time you can add extras such as fresh cherries, cucumber, mint, or alcohol of choice (see notes). Then top with club soda / sparkling water, stir gently, and enjoy!
  • Best when fresh. Store melon cubes in a freezer-safe container in the freezer up to 1 month. Juice will keep covered in the refrigerator for a few days, though best within the first 24 hours. Shake to refresh as it will separate.

A refreshing cocktail - perfect for a summer evening in the garden

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Drink

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 4

2large limes
100g watermelon
2 tbsp gin
tonic water

Steps:

  • Cut the limes into 16 pieces. Squeeze 2 pieces of lime into each of the 8 glasses, then drop in the squeezed flesh. Chop the watermelon and divide among the glasses, and throw in some ice cubes. Pour gin over each and top up with chilled tonic water.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful melons: The quality of your melon will greatly impact the taste of your spritzer. Look for melons that are heavy for their size, have a deep color, and give a slightly sweet aroma.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling your melon, sparkling water, and any other ingredients you use will help create a more refreshing spritzer.
  • Use fresh herbs and fruit: Adding fresh herbs like mint or basil, or fruit like strawberries or blueberries, can add a pop of flavor and color to your spritzer.
  • Adjust the sweetness to your taste: If you like your spritzer sweeter, add a bit of honey or simple syrup. If you prefer a tart flavor, add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice.
  • Experiment with different flavors: There are endless possibilities when it comes to creating melon spritzers. Try different combinations of melons, herbs, fruits, and sweeteners to find your favorite.

Conclusion:

Melon spritzers are a delicious and refreshing way to enjoy the flavors of summer. They are easy to make, customizable to your taste, and perfect for any occasion. Whether you are hosting a party or just looking for a refreshing drink to enjoy on a hot day, a melon spritzer is a great choice.
