Soy Free Melon Cucumber Cooler

This blender drink is the kind of thing you make once on a hot afternoon and then crave for the rest of the summer. Honeydew and cucumber are a naturally dreamy pairing — cool, lightly sweet, and incredibly refreshing — and the fresh ginger adds just enough of a tingle to keep things interesting. A handful of basil rounds it all out with a subtle herbal note that makes the whole glass feel a little fancy without any extra effort. Because everything here is whole, fresh produce with nothing processed or packaged, you never have to squint at a label wondering what's hiding in the ingredient list. The straining step is worth it — it gives you a silky, clean sip rather than a thick smoothie, which is exactly what you want when you're trying to cool down fast. A drizzle of honey is entirely optional, since ripe honeydew brings plenty of natural sweetness on its own. Pour it over a tall glass of ice and you've got something that looks like it came from a spa menu but took less than five minutes to pull together.
