If you’ve never had melon soup—typically made with cantaloupe—you’re in for a big treat. There’s nothing more refreshing in the summer than a bowl of sweet, chilled melon soup.

We’ve obtained the recipe for delicious melon soup from New York City’s legendary 21 Club.

Melon soup can be served as a first course or as dessert. Since there’s Champagne in the recipe, you can pair the soup with a glass of Champagne. Now that’s refreshing!

If you love melon, try the recipe. It may well become a family favorite.
