Ingredients
- 1 whole Honeydew melon
- 2 whole Lime
- 1 tablespoon Honey (optional)
- 5 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Start by washing the honeydew melon under cold running water, then pat it dry with a clean towel.
Step 2
Place the honeydew melon on a cutting board and carefully cut it in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon and discard them.
Step 3
Using a melon baller or a sharp knife, scoop or chop the flesh of the honeydew melon into bite-sized pieces.
Step 4
Transfer the melon pieces to a large serving bowl or individual serving dishes.
Step 5
Wash the limes thoroughly and cut them in half. Squeeze the juice from both limes over the honeydew melon pieces, making sure to distribute it evenly.
Step 6
If desired, drizzle the honey over the melon pieces for added sweetness. This step is optional, depending on your taste preference and the natural sweetness of the melon.
Step 7
Gently toss the melon pieces to coat them with the lime juice (and honey, if used).
Step 8
For an extra touch, garnish with a few fresh mint leaves before serving.
Step 9
Serve immediately or refrigerate for 10–15 minutes before serving to enjoy it chilled.
