Ingredients
- for cantaloupe juice:
- 3 cups cantaloupe, cut into chunks ⓘ
- for each cocktail:
- 1/2 cup cantaloupe juice
- 1/2 ounce Triple Sec ⓘ
- 1/2 ounce simple syrup ⓘ

Instructions
- Add the chunks of cantaloupe to a blender and pulse until the fruit is completely pureed. Pour the cantaloupe puree through a fine mesh sieve, pressing on the solids. It should yield about 2 cups of fresh juice - enough for 4 cocktails. Discard solids.
