Ingredients

  • assorted fruit but use a variety of colors and textures, use what's in season
  • Cherry for garnish
  • mint for garnish

rum simple syrup

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • mint several sprigs, fresh
  • 1/4 cup white rum

Instructions

  1. Dice the fruit into uniformly small cubes. For the best results, put the fruit directly into small serving dishes. This will help keep the fruit intact.
  2. Pour a little Rum Simple Syrup over each dish and serve garnished with a cherry and a few mint leaves.
  3. To make the syrup, combine the water and sugar in a saucepan and stir well. Heat to a boil, stirring to dissolve all the sugar. Boil, uncovered, for 3 minutes.
  4. Take the syrup off the heat and add the mint and rum. Muddle, or crush, the mint leaves with a wooden spoon so they release their essential oils.
  5. Cool and then strain the syrup.
  6. You can keep the syrup in a jar with a tight fitting lid in the fridge indefinitely.
