Ingredients

  • 2 cups chopped cantaloupe
  • 1 cup chopped English cucumber
  • 2 tbs. lime juice

  • 1/4 tsp. sea salt
  • 2 tbs. fresh mint, chopped

STEP 1
Place cantaloupe, cucumber, lime juice, lime zest, and chili paste in a blender, and blend until smooth.
STEP 2
Pour mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a large bowl; discard pulp.
STEP 3
Add Greek yogurt or coconut cream and salt, then whisk to combine. Taste — you may want to add another squeeze of lime juice or a pinch of sea salt.
