Fresh fruit salad with lime-ginger drizzle

Ingredients

  • 1 lime
  • 1-in. piece ginger
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • pineapple
  • raspberries
  • strawberries
  • blueberries

Instructions

  • Finely grate 1 tsp peel and squeeze 1 tbsp juice from a lime. Peel, then thinly slice, a 1 inch piece of ginger. Place ginger, 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup water, lime peel and juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium. Simmer uncovered, without stirring, until syrupy, 2 to 3 minutes. Strain, then cool at room temperature or in refrigerator.
  • Prepare 6 cups fresh-cut fruit, such as pineapple, raspberries and strawberries. Arrange on a platter and sprinkle with a handful of blueberries. Drizzle about 3 tbsp syrup over fruit just before serving.
