Iced Melon Drink Alternative :)

If you're a Fili or have Fili friends then you will know what an iced melon drink is. You can find this drink at barrio fiestas and most Fili restaurants.

If you've never had the pleasure of this drink then I suggest you give it a try, especially on a hot summers day.

All you will need is 1 cantaloupe melon, crushed ice, water and sugar, oh and a melon shredder (doh!!!)

Cut the melon in half, de seed and remove skin, use melon shredder and proceed to shred melon into a jug. Add water, how much is entirely up to you and how 'melony' you would like it to taste, add crushed ice and if you have a sweet tooth you can add sugar. Stir with a wooden spoon, pour and enjoy!

Now having told you how to make this drink and you find yourself (like me) craving for this outside cantaloupe season I've found an alternative!!! YEP that's right lol Rubicon has a WATERMELON juice!!! And I am so bloody excited that I needed to share this find with you!

Yes it's a watermelon juice not cantaloupe but honestly, when I first tried it, my first thought was of the melon drink my Aunty Ethel made for me many moons ago - now I do expect a lot of people who try it may disagree but for me that's what it reminds me of and it's light and not heavy like my favourite Rubicon juice MANGO...
