Directions

Step 1

Cut the cantaloupe, honeydew melon, and watermelon in half and remove the seeds if necessary.

Add the melon balls to the pitcher, followed by the fresh mint leaves. Gently stir to combine.

Step 6

Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together.

Just before serving, stir in the sparkling water to add a fizzy kick.
