Introduction
A new, refreshing way to eat cantaloupe. The mixture of flavors is very unexpected and very delicious! This recipe is great for summer pitch-ins. It's important that the cantaloupe is ripe with a lot of flavor. If it's fragrant, it's probably perfect. I can't take credit for this. I've tried it from others and went searching the Internet for a recipe. This is what I found and tweaked a little for my own taste (blogger adapted it from the book "The Splendid Table's How to Eat Supper"). A new, refreshing way to eat cantaloupe.
