Method
Melon Base
Prepare melon
Peel, seed and dice the melon if not already diced. Measure 2 cups of diced melon and place into a blender.
Blend melon and sweetener
Add the simple syrup (or honey) to the blender with the diced melon. Blend on high until smooth, about 30–45 seconds.
Strain (optional)
For an ultra-smooth milk, pour the blended melon through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, pressing with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard pulp or reserve for another use.
Combine with dairy
Return the strained melon liquid (or the unstrained blend) to the blender. Add cold whole milk and heavy cream (if using). Add lime juice and lime zest. Pulse briefly or blend on low just to combine, about 10–15 seconds. Taste and adjust sweetness with more simple syrup or honey if needed.
Finish & Serve
Fill two serving glasses with ice (about 4 cubes each). Divide the melon milk between the glasses, pouring gently over the ice.
Garnish each glass with a sprig of mint and a thin melon slice or melon ball on the rim. Optionally grate a small pinch of lime zest over the top for added aroma.
Serve immediately with a straw or spoon. Stir before drinking if ingredients have settled.
