Cut up and refrigerate the melon for at least one hour to chill.
Boil the water with a cup mint leaves for 2 minutes. Strain and return mint infusion to pan.

In a food processor, pur e the honeydew with the sugar and the lemon juice and with the motor running add the mint mixture in a stream. Process until the mixture has the consistency of raw egg whites.
Stir in the yogurt and empty mousse into a serving dish. Chill the mousse for at least 2 hours or overnight, and garnish it with fresh mint leaves.
