Tingly Fruit Salad

 From FamilyFun Magazine

Mixed with fresh mint leaves, this berry and melon combination is easy for kids to love. Prepare it a few hours ahead of time and it will develop a light, sweet syrup.

Ingredients
  • 1 pt. raspberries
  • 1 pt. blueberries
  • 1 small honeydew melon
  • 1 small cantaloupe
  • 2 tsp. sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves (optional)

Instructions
  1. Rinse the raspberries and blueberries, and allow time for them to dry thoroughly. Seed and cube both melons.

  2. In a stainless steel or glass bowl, toss together the berries, melon and sugar. (Of course, you can add or substitute other fruits, but keep in mind that fruits like bananas, pears and apples oxidize quickly and will discolor.) Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours.

  3. Right before serving, wash the mint leaves and use scissors to snip them into small pieces. Toss in with the fruit. Serves 8.
