Did not care for this. It smelled good but the consistency we didn't care for. Also we didn't find it to be sweet enough. I am sure you could add some sugar to remedy this. It was easy to make however just not for us. Read More

This is a perfect soup to go with a cool summer lunch. Easy and simple. I struggled with the kid rating. My daughter loved it but a friend was resistant to even try a cold soup made with fruit. Bon appetit! Read More

I used 1/2 a cantaloupe and 1 cup OJ same lime and cinnamon.. It would make a great breakfast drink or add some vodka and ice for an evening daiquiri. The taste was great; I think it's more suited to a drink than a soup. My 9 year old wants it for breakfast and my 13 year old was afraid to try it. 5 star for taste 1 star for soup. Read More

A great way to use up cantaloupe. I used 3/4 cup of freshly squeezed orange juice and threw in a peeled orange. Pureed all the ingredients in my food processor for about 1 min but I still thought the soup was too thick. So for those that thought the soup was too thin adding some fresh orange segments definitely thickens it up! Read More

I think this recipe has potential. I made it exactly as written an thought it had a bitter taste but I used Tropicana orange juice and tht could have attributed to the bitterness because the cantaloupe was as sweet as could be. I loved the cinnamon very nice touch. I'll try again with a different brand of orange juice or a different juice all together maybe a mango juice... Read More

So good and so sweet. I used 3/4 cantaloupe and 1 cup of orange juice pinch of cinnamon and 1/2 a lime. Make sure you use freshly squeezed orange juice and not the tasteless frozen concentrate type! Read More
