Honeydew Bubbles Recipe

By Tammy Algood Published: August 1, 2016

• Yield: 6 Servings

Ingredients

• 1 3-ounce package lime gelatin
• 3/4 cup boiling water
• 1/2 cup sweet white wine or cold water
• ice cubes
• 1/2 fresh honeydew melon seeded
• mint sprigs for garnish

Instructions

1. Place the gelatin in a heat-resistant mixing bowl and add the boiling water. Stir until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Add enough ice cubes to the wine or cold water to measure 11⁄4 cups. Add to the gelatin, stirring until slightly thickened. Remove any unmelted ice cubes and measure 11⁄3 cups gelatin. Divide into 6 tall serving glasses.
   
2. Using a small melon baller, cut the melon into balls and add all but 6 balls to the gelatin glasses. Use the handle of a wooden spoon to carefully place into the glasses so it looks like bubbles. Set aside.
   
3. Beat the remaining gelatin at high speed of an electric mixer until doubled in volume. Spoon over the gelatin in the glasses. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours or until set. Garnish each with a reserved melon ball and sprig of fresh mint before serving.
