Wonderful flavor. I did have to add a little bit of milk to blend and I substituted agave for the sugar.

Nice flavor. I'd make it again for sure. I subbed Van. yogurt for the plain yogurt and left out the sugar. It was good. I also used blackberries and raspberries together and liked the result.

I was worried about the cantaloupe being a little too sweet so I made the recipe without the sugar, then taste-tasted it. The cantaloupe I used was sweet enough so I didn't need the additional sugar. This doubled well for four servings but it wasn't near enough for four people. The combination of the cantaloupe and raspberries was wonderful. I agree with Scotdog that it could use a little vanilla flavoring or vanilla yogurt, like she used. Next time, I'd like to try to make these into frozen yogurt pops--I think that would be heaven.

I love cantaloupe in smoothies, but I always use frozen fruit. I subbed strawberries for the raspberries and vanilla yogurt for the plain. I left out the sugar. Since my fruit was frozen, I had to add some skim milk to get it mixed. I like my smoothies the consistency of thick milkshakes. The cantaloupe adds a lightness that I love, especially starting with a good sweet cantaloupe.

This was okay - terribly sweet. I used blueberries in leu of raspberries or strawberries - maybe that made the difference. May try again, but would make without the sugar first, and then add only if needed.

This is my favorite smoothie of all that I have made so far. Loved the combination of cantaloupe and red raspberries. I have some of these froze ahead for a quick breakfast. Thanks Penny for a great recipe!

This was a good smoothie with a unique taste! Cantaloupe was on sale, so I gave it a try... I used strawberries instead of raspberries and vanilla yogurt vs. plain. Like others, I had to add a bit of half and half to get it to blend.

I think this is only as good as your cantaloupe is juicy and sweet - mine wasn't all that great. To compensate I tossed in more raspberries (frozen) than called for and used peach rather than plain yogurt. Left out the sugar at Hubs' request and he was happy with the result. On the positive side of using not so juicy and sweet cantaloupe, however, I didn't experience the smoothie being watery as others reported. In fact, I had to add a little half-and-half to get the blender going. I'm not a big smoothie fan; I make these particularly for Hubs, but I found this lighter, more refreshing than others, most likely due to the mildness of the cantaloupe. Given my cantaloupe's rather bland condition, this was a great way to use it to its best advantage.

I made this with a frozen berry medley and added a couple chunks of fresh pineapple, as well as 1/4 cup of mango nectar and it is so tasty! didnt need to add sugar since the mango nectar provides the sweetness! tasty!!
