Hubby and son didn't care for it, but I did. I added more OJ, lime and sea salt to snazz up the flavor.

Very pleased with this recipe. Nice, light summery dessert. I garnished with fresh raspberries instead of orange peel. I agree that you have to be careful with the cantaloupe since the seasonings are very subtle.

This receipe substitutes well. I was out of fresh oranges so substituted fresh orange juice (NOT from concentrate) bought at the store. I also substituted a scant 1/2 cup milk with a dollop of sour cream for the whipping cream as I don't keep that in the house and didn't feel like a special trip to the store. The rest of the seasonings as stated. It was good but you had better like cantaloupe or this won't appeal to you. I like it better in a salad in stead of tomatoes.

This was so refreshing but it really depends on the cantalope for flavor. So be sure the cantalopes are in season befor trying this rcipe.
