The humble fruit salad. A summer staple that we all know and love, and one that takes no time at all to throw together. You're probably asking yourself 'how on earth could you possibly dress up a basic?'. Well, you can! 

This quick and simple syrup will take your fruit salad from a 3 to a 10, showing up everyone's fruit salad at your next BBQ. 

Prep Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

Syrup:
- 2 tbsp Lemon juice
- 150ml Orange juice
- 40g brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

Fruits:
- Half Punnet of Strawberries
- Cut up Grapes
- Cubed Mango
- Cubed Pineapple
- Peeled Oranges


Method

Add your syrup ingredients to a saucepan and stir to combine. Let it simmer lightly until it's slightly thickened and set to one side to cool. 

Cut up your fruits into cubes and slices so they're nice and bite-sized. Pop them into a bowl. 

Once the syrup has cooled, pour it over the fruit medley and stir it in so every piece of fruit is covered. Pop in the fridge for 2-3 hours to let the juices absorb into the fruit and enjoy!
