Crisp Mint & Cantaloupe Sieve Drink
Cantaloupe is highly water-rich and naturally low-acid. Blending it with a fresh mint leaf and straining it yields an immediate cooling sensation for oral pain while clearing away a stubborn metallic taste.
Gentle for a sore mouth, metallic taste.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cantaloupe chunks
- 1 fresh mint leaf
- 1/4 cup water
How to make it
- Blend the cantaloupe chunks, mint leaf, and water together until smooth. Run through a fine wire sieve.
