How to Make Cantaloupe Slush

How to Pick a Cantaloupe
The best way to choose a cantaloupe is by smelling it. It should smell sweet. And the stem end should slightly yield when pressed with your thumb. If the cantaloup isn’t quite ripe, let it sit at room temperature for up to 2 days to ripen. Whole ripe uncut melon will keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, and cut melon will keep for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
This refreshing melon fruit smoothie bowl makes a great addition to any breakfast or brunch table.
A few reasons you might want to incorporate more cantaloupe into your diet is because it’s loaded with Vitamin C, beta-carotene and vitamin A, and it’s incredibly hydrating to the skin. Keeps that skin of yours plump and glowing!! This Cantaloupe Lime Slush is an easy way to sneak more this vitamin rich melon into your diet.
