EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Light, refreshing and great for a crowd!

Honeydew melon balls taste great and add a colorful touch to this crowd-appealing drink. To make melon balls, scoop out balls from honeydew melon with a melon baller. Freeze the balls about 1 hour or until frozen. Just before serving, float balls in lemonade.

I made 2 pitchers for a rooftop pot luck party and I should have made more. Everyone really liked the flavor and agreed it is very refreshing. I only used 3/4 cup of sugar too because I felt the watermelon was sweet enough. Never missed the left out sugar. Definately recommend this.

This is very good! Used less sugar; Watermelon makes it sweet on its own.

I thought this was very good..Just a note about a previous review. This is supposed to be served in small glasses..If you look at the picture you can see they are small and would not be able to use large glasses to get that serving yield.
