What can you use in place of honeydew melon?

If you’re looking for an alternative to honeydew melon in a drink, watermelon is always a crowd-pleaser. While it may not have the same distinctive flavor profile, it adds a refreshing sweetness and its vibrant color makes for a visually appealing beverage. Cantaloupe is another option that can give your drink a hint of mellow sweetness.

For a more unique twist, try using diced fresh papaya or pineapple. Both add tropical flavors and their natural juices blend well with other ingredients. If you’re feeling adventurous, muddled cucumber slices add a refreshing invigoration to any drink.

Whatever substitute you choose, be sure to experiment with different flavor combinations to find the perfect mix for your taste buds.

What you’ll need to make Honeydew Kiwi Cooler

• ½ honeydew melon, seeds removed
• 4 kiwi fruits
• 1 lime

Ingredient substitutions

Orange: If you want to make a classic Kiwi Cooler, swap the honeydew melon for 1 large orange.

Lemon: You could also use lemon juice in place of the lime.

What you could also add

The honeydew kiwi cooler is already a refreshing and delicious blend of fruit, but there are plenty of ways to add even more flavor and nutrition. For a touch of sweetness and vitamin C, try adding a sliced peach or some frozen berries. A few slices of cucumber can add a cool, crisp element, while fresh mint leaves offer a refreshing burst of freshness.

For an extra boost of vitamins, toss in some spinach or chia seeds. You can also experiment with different types of juices, such as apple or pineapple, or add a splash of coconut water for added hydration. Protein powder can also increase the protein boost you get from healthy smoothies.

How to make the smoothie

Peel the melon, kiwi fruits, and lime, and cut them into pieces that fit into a juicer or blender.

Place all the fruit into the feeder and juice.

Divide between 2 glasses and enjoy straight away. If you want it to be even colder, add some ice cubes to the finished drink.

Recipe tips

If you find the recipe is a little thick, you can add some water to make sure it is liquid enough. Or you could use some crushed ice to make the drink a little thinner but still more like a smoothie.
