Time 5m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 -3 chilled cantaloupe, wedges
ice cube
1 dash rose water
1 -2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, to taste
honey or sugar
1 thinly sliced lemon wedge
1 sprig mint

Steps:

  • Blend cantaloupe with several cubes of ice in a blender.
  • Add a dash of rosewater. Rosewater is a delightful ingredient true to its name but it is also a dominating one so use sparingly. Jazz up the flavor by adding 1 tablespoon or more of fresh lemon juice. Mix with a wooden spoon. Sweeten to taste with honey or lemon, sparingly, so as to allow the natural flavor of the cantaloupe to shine through.
  • Pour into a glass and garnish with fresh mint or very thinly sliced wedge of lemon. Drink up!
  • Drink it quickly before the ice melts and dilutes the drink.

I'm not a big fan of cantaloupe, but I actually really enjoyed this drink. The lime and rose water really balance out the sweetness of the cantaloupe.

I was a bit disappointed with this recipe. The paloodeh talebi was too watery and didn't have much flavor.

The paloodeh talebi was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less sugar.
