Just okay. The mint really makes the soup so don't leave it out.

I made this for my husband and me. I enjoyed it - and I made the sandwich vegetarian-friendly by replacing the prosciutto with tomatoes and adding pesto. You definitely have to like cantaloupe to enjoy the soup. I thought it was delicious; the husband... not so much.

Couldn't be easier, and it is dazzling! I served it to a skeptical crowd, and they loved it!
