How to Make Spiced Melon Balls
- Drain 4 cups of cantaloupe or honeydew melon balls, reserving the juice.
- In a small saucepan, combine the reserved melon juice (approximately 1/2 cup), 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 2 whole cloves, and 1 (3-inch) cinnamon stick.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Remove the cloves and cinnamon stick.
- Pour the warm spiced syrup over the drained melon balls. Gently toss to coat.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to fully infuse and the melon balls to chill thoroughly before serving.
