Cut the melon in half.

Add the jalapeño peppers and cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes, or until soft.

Add the wine and bring to a boil. (If using hot pepper sauce, omit the oil and stir the hot sauce into the wine.)

Remove from the heat.

In a blender or food processor, puree the melon mixture, in batches, until very smooth.

Pour into a large bowl and stir until blended.
