Refreshing Tropical Fruit Salad With Vanilla Mint Syrup image

This syrup works with any combination of fruit; I especially like it with the tropicals. It is a light and refreshing dessert; the use of the vanilla bean makes these fruits seem exotic. Cook time includes chill time. From author and herbalist Susan Belsinger.

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 vanilla bean
fresh mint leaves, 1 handful bruised
3 slices lime zest
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
1 firm ripe mangoes or 1 papaya, peeled, seeded, and cut into bite-sized pieces
1 small ripe cantaloupe, seeded, and cut into bite-sized pieces
1 ripe pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into bite-sized pieces

Steps:

  • Make flavored fruit syrup by combining water, sugar, vanilla, mint and zest in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. When cooled to room temperature, strain syrup and stir in lime juice. At this point syrup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

I thought this fruit salad was just okay. The syrup was a bit too sweet for my taste, and the mint flavor was a bit overpowering. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less syrup and mint.

This fruit salad is a great way to use up leftover fruit. I had some strawberries, blueberries, and grapes that were about to go bad, so I threw them all together with some vanilla mint syrup and it turned out delicious!
