Fruity and flavorful, it is made with just two ingredients: melon seeds and water. Melon seeds pack a bounty of health benefits, making this refreshing beverage both delicious and super good for you. As simple as it gets.
I made it for an alfresco dinner party, and it was almost too easy: a mixture of melon seeds and water blended until almost smooth, strained, and served in a glass over ice.
