In high school, I had the whole set of Cucumber Melon scented everything–body lotion, body wash, bubble bath, hand soap, body spray, etc. It’s a nice scent, with hints of cucumber, honeydew and-I think-cantaloupe. Why not recreate into breakfast?<\/p>\n

I didn’t have any cantaloupe or honeydew on hand, although they’re in season right now, but I did have a gallon Ziploc of frozen watermelon chunks. Our 4th of July watermelon was a huge seedless, and I knew we couldn’t eat it all in those few days, so I cut it up and froze part of it. And I would use some now. This smoothie is pink and sweet (melon), tangy (orange juice), and has a little bite (cucumber). And the texture is awesome, like softserve ice cream. This makes a great breakfast, a snack, a dessert, or even a great cocktail with a little watermelon or lemon vodka. (I think those exist.)<\/p>\n
