Ingredients

• 1 large (about 3 pounds) Cantaloupe
• 1 cup Orange juice
• 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 5 leaves Fresh mint leaves
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 4 cubes Ice cubes
• 2 teaspoons Chopped fresh mint (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the cantaloupe in half and scoop out the seeds using a spoon. Cut away the rind and chop the cantaloupe flesh into large chunks.

Step 2

In a blender, combine cantaloupe chunks, orange juice, Greek yogurt, honey, fresh mint leaves, lemon juice, and salt.

Step 3

Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. If needed, stop occasionally to scrape down the sides of the blender.

Step 4

Add ice cubes to the blender and blend again until the mixture is well-chilled and slightly thickened.

Step 5

Taste the soup and adjust sweetness by adding more honey if desired, blending again briefly to combine.

Step 6

Refrigerate the soup for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld (optional).

Step 7

Pour the chilled soup into bowls or glasses and garnish with chopped fresh mint. Serve immediately.
