I love using fresh fruit and I’m always trying to think of ways to incorporate fruit into our diet. I recently tried incorporating cantaloupe into our diet and I came up with this fruit drink. My Refreshing Cantaloupe Slush is packed full of fruit.
I love serving this drink to my kids because I know they are getting a nutritious drink. I try to make large batches of this, which keeps the family away from those non-healthy type of drinks.

Cuisine:
American
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 cup cantaloupe cubes
- 1/3 cup pineapple chunks
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup frozen or canned peaches
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 3 ice cubes
Instructions
-
Add all the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. For added flavor, use frozen orange juice concentrate.
If you make this drink in the evening and let it chill it is perfect with breakfast the next morning. It is a welcome change over milk or other fruit juices. It has a unique tropical flavor that makes you want to come back for more. When I can’t find cantaloupe on sale or when it isn’t in season, I go to my trusty Banana Coconut Smoothie recipe. This is another fresh and tropical drink, that I can’t get enough of.

July 23, 2013 at 6:39 pmThis sounds so good. It seems like I always have cantaloupe that goes bad before I can use it all. I’ll have to try this as a way to not let anymore go to waste! Thanks for sharing 🙂 Visiting from Pin It Tuesday
