Chilled Melon Soup

"I took this from Eating Well Magazine and it is a favorite at our home! I omitted the jalapeno, but the original recipe does call for 1 pepper chopped and added to blender with the scallions. You can try any variety of melon with this soup! I have so far only made it with watermelon and it was wonderful!"
