On 3, Thermidor, we celebrate the melon! I’ve made some cantaloupe popsicles to ring in Heat month.

Cantaloupe Raspberry Popsicles

1 ripe cantaloupe

1 cup of fresh raspberries

1 cup simple syrup

2 limes, juiced

dash of salt

Cut the cantaloupe and remove the seeds and rind. First, pure the cantaloupe in a food processor and reserve in a bowl. Then, puree the raspberries and strain the seeds with a strainer over a bowl. Add the two juices together along with the simple syrup, lime juice and dash of salt. Place in popsicle molds and freeze. If you have any remaining juice mix, it makes for a refreshing cocktail. Enjoy!
