Cantaloupe Lime Slush

This Cantaloupe Lime Slush is a delicious frozen treat that is complete addictive. I love everything about this fresh cantaloupe slush recipe. It’s made with fresh cantaloupe, lime and coconut water and comes together in a pinch.

I love everything about this thick and luscious fresh cantaloupe slush! It’s made with frozen cantaloupe chunks, fresh lime, and coconut water and the whole concoction is whipped into a frozen frosty treat for breakfast, snack or dessert.

Growing up my mom always served cantaloupe and tomatoes whenever we’d have fried eggs and hash browns for breakfast.  So I grew up loving cantaloupe!   Then I became obsessed with it once I started making this cantaloupe smoothie bowl.

Cantaloupe Slush Recipe

• Cantaloupe. We use frozen cantaloupe for this recipe.
• Coconut Water. Coconut water adds a nice exotic flavor to the mix. 
• Lime Juice Lime juice enhances the flavor of cantaloups.        
• Honey. You can add a little honey if you want things a little sweeter. 

How To Make Cantaloup Slush

1. Prepare Ingredients. Peel and chop the cantaloupe. Place in the freezer until you’re ready to blend.
2. Blend Ingredients. Toss all of the ingredients in your NutriBullet, food processor or blender and blend until smooth. Add a little more coconut water if it’s too thick.
3. Garnish. Top with fruits, nuts and seeds if you like.
4. Enjoy. Serve with a spoon (it’s on the thicker side so a straw doesn’t work very well).

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.
