My daughter raved about the Melonade she had at a restaurant outside of town. The ingredients were listed on the menu, but it required some trial and error to find the ratios that matched the flavor she remembered. Although I don’t drink much, I find this to be wonderful and refreshing. I also believe it’s fantastic when I make mine without the vodka.

I prefer a Melon Ball over this drink but it is still very tasty and refreshing.
Yummy, I don’t like melon liqueur so it was halfed, I added a little more Vodka. I also made this a frozen drink by placing the ingredients in the blender adding the soda last.
Wow, a surprise hit at my Bunco party. Will make this again.Went great with cindys tasty wings!
My husband and I don’t drink soda pop so we substituted lemonade for the soda. Worked great. A very sweet and tasty summer time beverage.
This was a very good drink and went over very well for my family. It’s very hard to not drink them, and I think I’m going to have to run out and buy another bottle of melon liquor soon as I’m almost out now. Yum.
Oh my. yet another alcoholic drink I absolutely love. This is such a wonderful tasting drink.
Since Summer is coming, I went and bought all of the ingredients for this cocktail. I added a splash more vodka and a little more sprite. I just made one serving. I gave it four stars just because I don’t personally prefer sweet drinks, but my neighbor that I made it for said it was fantastic and reminded her of a mojito. Maybe blending the ice in would be an option. Or adding a little additional acid to lighten up the sweetness. But this drink served as is in chilled martini glasses is fantastic. Great drink for grilling and chilling!
WOW this is a great drink. I have made a glass for my and a punchbowl for a group of friend. Have saved this to my recipe box and will use over and over.
I had a small party the other night and went out and bought a bottle of Midori. I’m sorry to say it was a waste of money. No one drank their drinks.
Soooooooooo good! My girlfriend turned me on to this drink last week and when she told me where she found it I deicided to rate it for both of us. It ROCKS!
What a fantastic drink! I made it exactly as written and then tried it again without the vodka. To me they were just as good that way and much less alcohol.
Thought this was a “chick” drink when my wief was making for party. But it’s surprisingly refreshing and good. I will be scarfing these down all summer.
I love Midori to begin with but thes drink really knocked my sox off! I made a big pitcher when we had guests this weekend and I ended up making another one. The taste is great but you have to be careful not to overdue it. It’s so good you just keep drinking and drinking and drinking it. It is a fantastic summer drink.
