REFRESHING TROPICAL FRUIT SALAD WITH VANILLA MINT SYRUP



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.
