Have you ever tried Cantaloupe Juice on a hot day?

[IrishEyes]

Years ago on a Center trip to the Zoo in August I had our Assistant cook as my aide.
She was a lady from Mexico and brought along some cooling jugs of Cantaloupe Juice
instead of water for the children. She told me "It's hot in summer at my home there, this is what we drink".
I have never had any drink that nearly instantly hydrated you and perked you back up.
I just made myself a jug of it for the nutrients in it.
Here is a link with the recipe for those who may want try it and read about it's benefits.
If you live in a hot climate and like these melons, you may want to give it try this summer or even now.

Hi Irish,

I love melon juices in general and might get the Simple Truth brand
now and the, it's an organic brand.

I used to fresh juice three times weekly but that was about 10 years ago.

Back them I mostly seemed to just Apples, Celery and Carrots. That was
a favorite. Occasionally I juiced watermelon. I love it.

I though positively would like to drink fresh cantaloupe juice.

Am going to read your link

I've had juice made from an overly ripe cantaloupe. It was good, but it was just blitzed up cantaloupe.

That sounds delicious and healthy; I may try to prepare some here once we get in-season canteoloupes.

To each their own, but

I understand, to each their own for sure. I love all the melons , not too big on citrus myself.

In Mexico, we had non -alcoholic drinks that were essentially fruit juices whipped with ice into sort of slushies.

I think over the course of a few days, we tried all of them.

I know I had cantaloupe, mango and maybe guava. Yummy and very refreshing.

Oh, the juice sounds so good. In the recipe it calls for 4 cups of fruit and water, too. Adding lime or lemon juice, strawberries, blueberries. Also, pick a heavy melon with no green spots and a yellow or beige color. Thanks for the topic.
