About Muskmelon Punch
Muskmelon Punch is a delicious summer treat prepared using fresh muskmelon, milk, sweetened condensed milk, sugar, and nuts.
It is a rich and creamy drink that comes together in just 5 minutes and is perfect to serve on hot summer days.
This punch is easy and quick and will surely give you some relief from the scorching heat outside.
You can even serve it on the side with your festive meals, as it has a royal touch due to the use of nuts and condensed milk.
Ingredients
This simple punch needs only 5 main ingredients – fresh muskmelon, milk, sweetened condensed milk, sugar, and nuts.
While selecting muskmelon, always smell it. It should smell fruity, musky, and sweet. It should be a little firm when pressed. Avoid the ones with soft patches.
Use whole milk (full-fat milk) for the creamiest texture.
Adjust the sugar as per your taste.
Cashews are added for richness and to improve the texture. You can even use soaked and peeled almonds instead of cashews.
Finally, garnish it with some almond, cashew, and pistachio slivers.
How To Make Muskmelon Punch
Gather the ingredients and chill them in the refrigerator for a few hours.
Cut 1 small muskmelon into half and discard the seeds.
Cut each half into quarters and remove the skin using a knife.
Now chop the wedges into 1-inch cubes.
Add the following ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.
- half of the cubed melon
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 8-10 whole cashew nuts
Chop the remaining melon into very small pieces.
Add the chopped melon into two tall serving glasses.
Top the glasses with the melon shake and then garnish with almond, cashew, and pistachio slivers. Serve chilled. You can also add a few ice cubes while serving.
Note – Instead of cutting, peeling, and chopping the melon, you can also scoop the flesh from the whole melon by keeping its shell intact and then serve the punch in the shell itself.
Note – Top the punch with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a yummy treat.
Storage Suggestions
This punch tastes best when made fresh.
Cut the melon and refrigerate it to come in handy when making the punch.
You can also chop the nuts and store them in an airtight container in the fridge or at room temperature.
