Melon & ginger sharbat

A refreshing blended fruit drink with a sweet-sour gingery taste - use Cantaloupe, Galia or honeydew melon
Ingredients
    1¼ kg sweet aromatic melon flesh (cantaloupe, Galia or honeydew work well), chopped into large chunks
    thumb-sized piece ginger, peeled and finely chopped
    juice 3 oranges
    2 tsp sugar, plus extra to taste
    squeeze of lemon juice (optional)
    lots of ice, to serve
Method
Blend the melon, ginger, orange juice and sugar together until smooth – you may need to do this in batches. Add the lemon juice if the orange isn’t very tart. Add a pinch of salt and pepper, if you like, and adjust the sugar to taste. Serve in glasses over lots of ice.
