From Statesboro Market2Go

<p>With frozen canary melon, you can enjoy this refreshing drink year round.<br /> To freeze the melon, cut into 1 inch pieces (or use a melon baller) and spread in a pan in a single layer. Place pan in freezer, and when melon pieces are frozen transfer them to a plastic bag. <br /> For a non-alcoholic drink, replace the rum with water. <br /> This recipe can also be used with watermelon.</p>
