Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Make the Mint Demerara Syrup

    In a small saucepan, combine the water and Demerara sugar. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Add the fresh mint leaves and let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool before straining out the mint leaves.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Honeydew and Cucumber

    Cut the honeydew melon in half, scoop out the seeds, and cut the flesh into small cubes. Peel the cucumber and slice it thinly.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the honeydew cubes and cucumber slices. Drizzle the mint Demerara syrup over the top and gently toss to coat the fruits evenly.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve immediately in chilled bowls or glasses, garnished with additional mint leaves if desired.
