The whole drink starts by brewing a green mint tea. While you can buy mint tea bags and use those for this recipe, we like to use fresh mint as it gives a whole new, incredible flavor.

Fresh mint is very potent and will liven up your green tea in an amazing way. You can use either peppermint or spearmint leaves in this recipe, both will lend their delicious flavor to the tea.

The second part of this drink is the melon slushy. Ripe, honeydew melon is blended into a thick puree. If you’d like a smoother drink, strain the blended melon into a large bowl before adding the tea. This will give you a clearer, silkier drink that is more like a juice than a slushy.

If you don’t mind a little texture, skip the straining and just add the tea into the blender along with the ice. Puree all the ingredients together and hen serve. This drink will excite and refresh you on any hot summer day!
