"A cold melon soup, great for a light dessert. Cook time is refrigeration time. This can also be made in a large bowl with a hand blender. If you want it thinner, use a little white wine to thin. Original recipe called for a white Spanish melon, but suggested substitution is a Crenshaw or Honeydew melon."
