Step-by-Step Method:

Step 1: Prepare the Honeydew

Start by cubing a ripe honeydew melon. You want about 1 cup of juicy honeydew.

Tip: If you want extra melon flavor, freeze the melon cubes for a couple of hours before blending to make the martini extra cold without watering it down.

Step 2: Blend the Honeydew

Add the honeydew cubes to a blender and blend until smooth.

Tip: Strain the blended melon if you prefer a smoother texture.

Step 3: Mix the Cocktail

In a cocktail shaker, combine the following:

2 oz vodka

1 oz Midori

1 oz lime juice

1 tsp honey or simple syrup

A few ice cubes

Shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until everything is well-mixed and chilled.

Note: If you don’t have a shaker, a mason jar with a lid works as a great alternative!

Step 4: Strain and Serve

Strain the mixture into chilled martini glasses. Add a honeydew melon ball or a lime wedge for garnish.

Step 5: Enjoy!

Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Honeydew Martini with the girls! 🍈🍸

Variations & Tips:

Mocktail Version: If you're making this for girls who prefer a non-alcoholic option, swap the vodka and Midori with sparkling water or lemon-lime soda. You still get that delicious honeydew flavor without the alcohol kick.

Low-Sugar Option: To make this martini more diabetic-friendly, use a sugar-free simple syrup or a natural sweetener like Stevia instead of honey.

Dietary Needs: If you’re gluten-sensitive, make sure the vodka you're using is labeled gluten-free. Most plain vodkas are, but flavored ones can sometimes contain hidden gluten.
