Cut the ripe cantaloupe fresh into chunks and puree them in a food
processor to measure about 3 cups. Stir in the syrup and lemon juice. Taste
carefully. If the melon is not fully ripe, you may want to add a little
more syrup. Cover and freeze the fruit puree in ice cube trays [we needed
2.5 trays worth].

When frozen, place several cubes at a time into a food processor and puree
until smooth. Process as many cubes as you want and enjoy! [One tray's
worth of cubes was about 2 servings].

Simple Syrup: Put the water and sugar in a pot and bring to a boil. Lower
the heat, cover and cook at a gentle boil for 4 to 5 minutes. Make sure
the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the lemon juice and let cool. Use in
above recipe. Makes about 1 cup.
