Edit Note

Prep: 20 min. We used honeydew melon, but this recipe is just as refreshing with cantaloupe, Crenshaw, or watermelon.

Yield: Makes 6 cups

Ingredients

  • 1/3  cup  fresh lemon juice (about 3 lemons)
  • 1/4  cup  powdered sugar
  • 2  tablespoons  fresh lime juice (1 lime)
  • 1/2  honeydew melon, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes (about 4 cups)
  • 2  cups  navel orange sections (2 oranges)*

Preparation

1. Whisk together lemon juice, powdered sugar, and lime juice in a large bowl. Add honeydew melon and orange sections, and gently toss.

*1 (11-oz.) can mandarin oranges, drained, may be substituted.
