Typical medium musk melon/cantaloupe whole weight about 1 kg.

Instead of Musk melon

Ripe mango
Use the same weight, cubed. Sweeter and more aromatic, so reduce added sugar and use a little less lime.
Pineapple
Use the same weight, drained if canned. More acidic, so add 1-2 tsp sugar and reduce lemon or lime.
Pear
Use the same weight, diced. Milder and firmer, so poach or simmer 3-5 minutes longer if cooking.
