    List of Ingredients




    MINT-LIME SIMPLE SYRUP
    1 cup sugar
    1 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves
    1/4 cup fresh lime juice

    FRUIT SALAD
    2 (16-oz.) containers fresh strawberries, halved
    1 (6-oz.) container fresh raspberries
    2 cups seedless green grapes
    2 kiwifruit, peeled and thinly sliced

    Recipe



    SYRUP:
    Mix the sugar, mint leaves and a cup of water in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Stirring occasionally, bring to a boil and let boil until the sugar dissolves – about a minute. Remove from heat, stir in the lime juice and cool minutes. Pour through a strainer and chill, airtight, for at least 4 hours.

    FRUIT SALAD:
    Mix together the fruit and toss with 1/2 cup of the syrup. Serve chilled.

    Serves 8-10.
