True, this concoction is slightly more complex than lemonade. But so are most relationships.

1 (2 1/2-pound) honeydew, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 6 cups)

2 medium Persian cucumbers or 1 English hothouse cucumber, peeled, coarsely chopped

1/3 cup (packed) mint leaves, plus more for serving

Pinch of kosher salt

3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Club soda (for serving)

Purée honeydew, cucumbers, mint, and salt in a blender until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl (do not press on solids, which would make mixture cloudy). Stir in lime juice and chill 1 hour.
Divide honeydew purée among ice-filled glasses. Top off with club soda and garnish with mint sprigs.
Honeydew purée can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
