Sweet melon, orange liqueur and lemon. A bit of a sweetie, as its lurid green colour might suggest

Due to me being unable to find melon liqueur anywhere in my country I went ahead and made my own (on a base of white rum). Perhaps my version ended up way different from a bottle of Midori, but this cocktail quickly became one of my favorites. Delightfully sweet and sour, reminded me of sour fruit candy.

Probably far superior to actual midori, which is just confectionary.
