I'm not sure how I feel about this. Cantaloupe as a drink just tastes weird to me. I'm tempted to give it a 4 because of health benefits, but I just can't bring myself to do that. I'll stick to berries and bananas in my smoothies. If I try cantaloupe again in a drink, it definitely won't be by itself.

Excellent! I also had to add a little water as it was too thick. Next time I might add some vanilla soy milk as another reviewer mentioned. Will definitely make again!!!

This was very good -- I added 1/2 c. of vanilla soy milk and used 3 packets of Splenda instead of sugar. My melon was very ripe, so that was enough sweetener. Next time I might add some more ice because the cantaloupe is slightly too thick.

I thought this was pretty good but discovered that adding a banana to it made it much better!

I really like the Cantaloupe Frenzy! To add a kick to it add a little sprite. Hmmmm :D

WOW! This is amazing! Tastes like a dessert! I used Stevia instead of sugar and my family loves it! I wanted to point out that a half of cantaloupe makes two full glasses so if you are making this for yourself and a friend, use only half the melon. Will definitely make again and again!

I'm not rating this recipe too low because I think the quality of the fruit, not the recipe itself, was at fault. With that said, however, bear in mind that this recipe is only as good as the cantaloupe you get -- and extra sugar cannot save it. I had a fairly tasteless melon, and the drink was pretty bad -- I added sugar, then strawberries and lime juice to try to salvage it, but it was still less than impressive, I'm not sure that I would try this again even with a good melon.

This is absolutely fantastic! I just made it for a light dessert... light, refreshing, and really nourishing as well. This would make a great treat for brunch. My cantaloupe was perfectly ripe, so this was the perfect amount of sugar. Fabulous!!
