Melon With Lime Syrup Recipes

Steps:

• Place lime juice and honey in a saucepan and heat on the grates of a hot grill or side burners. Bring to a boil and let boil for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and chill. Place watermelon slices on a large platter and drizzle with the lime syrup and garnish with mint.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan combine sugar and 1/2 cup water; bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Lower heat and simmer 3 minutes. Cool completely. Stir in lime juice and mint. Cover syrup and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour.
• In a large bowl combine honeydew and cantaloupe cubes. Add syrup and jalapeno and toss to combine. Serve melon with a little syrup spooned over.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine sugar and 1/2 cup water; place over medium-high heat. Bring just to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until syrup has thickened slightly, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in lime juice, and chill in an ice-water bath.
• Meanwhile, cut the melons into attractive 1/4-inch-thick slices. Transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with the cooled syrup, garnish with mint leaves, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In small bowl, whisk together sugar and 1/4 cup hot water until sugar is dissolved. Stir in lime juice and zest. Cover and refrigerate until cool, about 1 1/2 hours. (Syrup can be made ahead and chilled, covered, up to 3 days.)
• In 1 very large or 2 medium plastic containers, combine melon wedges. Refrigerate until cold, about 1 1/2 hours. (Melons can be sliced and chilled up to 12 hours ahead.)
• As close to serving time as possible, stir mint into syrup and drizzle over melon wedges. Serve chilled.
