10 spoon review!!! Wasn't sure about all these ingredients mixed together but decided to try it anyway. SOOOO GOOOD! Used my mint I have growing, and what melon I had on hand which was Honeydew and I think it made it a sweeter version. Very light and flavorful. Great for summer. Can't wait till my next potluck or BBQ. This is what I'll bring. I'm sure it will be a hit and everybody will want the recipe.
