- 1 lemon thinly sliced
- 2 cups cubed honeydew melon
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine sugar, water and 1 sliced lime. Bring to boil over medium-high heat, stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let stand 30 minutes. Strain mixture through fine sieve. Discard solids and refrigerate liquid for 2 hours. You can prepare up to 2 weeks in advance.

Notes
This recipe does require chilling time for both the lime simple syrup and the finished sangria, so keep that in mind when you plan to prepare this recipe.
