Honeydew, Cucumber, and Mint Soda

This honeydew, cucumber and mint soda is the ultimate botanical refresher for warm summer afternoons. This vibrant vegan drink combines the delicate sweetness of ripe melon with the crisp, cooling notes of cucumber. By straining the fruit base without pressing the solids, you create a beautifully clear, elegant syrup that feels far more sophisticated than your average shop-bought soft drink.

Perfect as a non-alcoholic option for garden parties or a healthy alternative to sugary fizzy drinks, this recipe focuses on fresh, seasonal ingredients and natural flavours. The addition of zesty lime juice balances the honeyed notes of the melon, while the sparkling club soda provides a crisp finish. For the best results, ensure your fruit is well-chilled before you begin blending.

Ingredients for Honeydew, Cucumber, and Mint Soda

  • 1 (1.1kg) honeydew, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 1450ml )

  • 2 medium Persian cucumbers or 1 English hothouse cucumber, peeled, coarsely chopped

  • 1/3 cup (packed) mint leaves, plus more for serving

  • Pinch of kosher salt

  • 45ml fresh lime juice

  • Club soda (for serving)

Purée honeydew, cucumbers, mint, and salt in a blender until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl (do not press on solids, which would make mixture cloudy). Stir in lime juice and chill 1 hour.

Divide honeydew purée among ice-filled glasses. Top off with club soda and garnish with mint sprigs.

Honeydew purée can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
