Melon Mint Slush (Printable Version)

# What You'll Need:

→ Main Components

01 - 3 shots vodka
02 - Big pinch salt, to taste
03 - 1 lime, juiced
04 - 1 small bunch fresh mint
05 - 1/4 cup water
06 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
07 - 2 pounds cantaloupe, cubed

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Right away, pour your finished melon mix into a cold glass and pop on any toppings you like. Sip and enjoy.
02 - Chuck the frozen cantaloupe chunks, mint syrup, lime juice, some salt, and vodka all in your blender. Hit go until everything gets thick and frosty.
03 - Pour your syrup through a strainer to catch the mint leaves—toss those bits out. Wait for the liquid to cool.
04 - Mix the sugar, mint, and water in a small pot on medium. Keep stirring until the sugar is gone and the mint gives a soft green glow. You’ll only need a few minutes.
05 - Spread those cantaloupe cubes on a wax-lined tray. Pop it in your freezer until the pieces are good and hard—it’ll take an hour or two.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Skip the vodka for a booze-free treat—just swap in the same amount of bubbly water.
