CANTALOUPE, PLUMS, AND CHERRIES WITH MINT AND VANILLA
Blueberries can be substituted for cherries. Because riper fruits require more acid to balance their sweetness, the lime juice should be added to taste. Start with 1 tablespoon, then add 1 teaspoon at a time as necessary. Adapted from America's Test Kitchen. Posted for Summer '09 Comfort Cafe. Cook time is standing time.

REFRESHING TROPICAL FRUIT SALAD WITH VANILLA MINT SYRUP
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.
