Megan Sanchez, Güero, from "Good Drinks" by Julia Bainbridge
3⁄4 ounce freshly squeezed lime juice
Pinch of salt
3–4 ounces soda water, preferably Topo Chico
3 ounces Honeydew-Avocado Puree (recipe follows)
Tajín Clásico or other chile-lime seasoning powder, for garnish*
1⁄2 avocado, cubed
4 cups cubed honeydew
Fill a collins glass with ice, then add the lime juice and salt. Add soda water, then top with the fruit puree. Gently stir to combine. Finish with a pinch of Tajín.
Combine the avocado, melon, and 3⁄4 cup water in a blender and blend on high until smooth, about 1 minute. Fine-strain and discard the pulp. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.. Makes about 2 1/2 cups, enough for just over 6 drinks.
* You can replicate much of the flavor of Tajin by mixing fresh lime juice, ancho chili, and salt. Try this out or try using other chilies like Aleppo or Urfa to explore new flavors.
