Surprising Cantaloupe Frost - Aaaaahhh!


Why, why are you still wasting all those cantaloupe seeds?? This odd spin on sweet summer cantaloupe is one of the most delicious, refreshing summer treats around our place. We usually save the seeds from two cantaloupes to have enough to satisfy us all... It takes a cheesecloth or loose weave fabric bag to make, so be prepared. Did I say - SO YUMMY!

Cantaloupe Frost

1 cantaloupe
1 - 1 ½ cup water
2 cups ice
3 tablespoons sugar

1. Remove the seeds and "goop" from the cantaloupe and put them in a blender. Blend with the 1 or 1 1/2 cup of water until very, very smooth.

2. Squeeze this liquid through a cheese cloth and discard the seed residue. Add 3 T of sugar and stir well.

3. Add the sugar and ice and blend tip smooth, 1 to 2 minutes.
