Honeydew Jalapeno Shooters

We loved surprising Guests with this unconventional and unexpected breakfast starter. The sweet honeydew elevated with dōTERRA lime essential oil and a kick of jalapeño heat will have your taste buds at full alert.

It’s super easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time if you’re not wanting to wake the house up with your blender prep.

We substitute lime essential oil for purchased limes to ensure there’s nothing but plant in the glass. dōTERRA is the only company with CPTG (Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade) oils that can be ingested… but more on that another time.
