Bahan-bahan

4 porsi

1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 tablespoons finely grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon lemon zest
6 -7 cups coarsely chopped, fully ripe cantaloupe (about 1 large, or 1.5 medium cantaloupes)
1 1/2 cups milk (whatever kind you have on hand)
8 sprigs fresh mint or other herbs (for garnish)
1 cup finely diced cantaloupe (for garnish)

Langkah-langkah

Place butter, honey, and lemon peel in a small bowl. Microwave until butter is fully melted, about 45 seconds. Stir to blend mixture. Use a rubber spatula to scrape mixture into a food processor or blender.
Add melon chunks and grated ginger and puree until as smooth as possible. (My food processor only fit about half of the melon, so I pureed it in two batches.) Transfer to a bowl and stir in milk until well-blended. Cover, and chill thoroughly (4 or more hours).
Garnish each serving with a mint (or other herb) sprig, and a few pieces of diced cantaloupe if you’d like.
