5- Just before serving, drain the melon balls, reserving the juice. Divide the juice and melon balls equally between 3 serving bowls. 

6- Flavor one bowl with ground ginger and toss with chopped walnuts. Flavor another bowl with ground cinnamon and decorate with grated orange zest. Finally, flavor the third bowl with lemon juice tossed with chopped mint. If the melon is not particularly sweet, you may wish to add a sprinkling of caster sugar to each bowl. 

7- Chill until right before serving. Guests serve themselves from each of the three bowls.
