| Chic Cocktails | Melon Spice

Summer is smoldering so finding ways to keep cool and refreshed are always a great idea. Here is one that is refreshing and extremely delicious---of course, that is if you love melons and I love them. Even more when a drink involves a dose of spice, and this one comes in that form. The best part is that it's one of the easiest drinks you will make.

| INGREDIENTS | 

1 whole cantaloupe melon 

(chopped into medium sized pieces for mix x garnish)

6 cups ice

2 tbsps honey

1/4 tbsp sea salt

1 whole chili pepper

(chopped into small pieces for mix x garnish)

3 tbsps vodka 

(for each cup)

1 cup of melon mix 

(for each cup)

1 whole lime 

(optional for garnish only)

| TIP |

put vodka and chili peppers first x let them sit together for a few minutes before pouring in the melon mix, so that the chilies ferment in the vodka.
