Ingredients

Melon Juice
- ½ honeydew melon, peeled, seeded and cubed
Cocktail
- ½ cup (125 ml) ice cubes
- 1 ½ oz (45 ml) Lillet Blanc, chilled
- 1 ½ oz (45 ml) melon juice
- 4 oz (125 ml) tonic water, chilled
- 3 balls honeydew melon, removed with a melon baller
- 1 lemon balm sprig (optional)

Preparation

Melon Juice
- In a blender, purée the melon cubes until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve, without pushing down on the pulp, to extract only the juice (see note). Compost the pulp.
Cocktail
- Place the ice cubes in a spritzer glass. Add the Lillet, melon juice and tonic. Thread the melon balls onto a toothpick. Place in the glass along with the lemon balm sprig, if desired.

Note from Ricardo

Depending on the size of your honeydew, you may have enough juice to make several cocktails.
