SUMMER FRUIT SALAD



Summer Fruit Salad image

In another era, this kind of chopped fruit salad was called a Macedonia. Use as many kinds of ripe fruits as you wish, including melon, stone fruit, grapes and berries. The simple combination of homemade jam dissolved with a splash of white wine or liqueur marries beautifully with the fruits' natural juices. Leave the compote to macerate a bit and serve chilled for a completely refreshing dessert.
