Ingredients:
- 4 oz melon juice (about ¼ honeydew, piel de sapo, snow leopard, your choice!)
- 2 oz lime juice (about 2 limes)
- 2 oz tequila (optional)
- ½ oz honey, agave, or simple syrup (depending on sweetness of fruit)
- Ice
- ½ tsp chili powder (we used Mountain Rose Herbs)
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 lime, sliced for serving
Instructions:
- Juice your melon, or scoop out flesh and run through a blender. Strain through cheesecloth, if desired.
- Mix together chili powder and salt in a small dish. Swipe lime wedge around a 12 oz glass rim, dip in salt to coat the rim. Add ice.
- In a shaker with ice, pour melon juice, lime juice, tequila, and honey. Shake until chilled. Pour into prepared glasses and serve with a wedge of lime.
