Melon Rum Cocktail Recipe
Notes:
• Cantaloupe was used as the garnish for this cocktail, but you can substitute honeydew melon instead.
• You can purchase Melon Peach Italian Soda in at Whole Foods. Torani Makes a flavored syrup, and you can add it to seltzer water in a pinch.
• If you prefer to not use pop, substitute 1 – 1½ ounces of Midori and/or 1 – 1½ of Peach Schnapps. This will make for a more potent drink though!! (ie do not plan on driving).
